Not quite sure (haven't looked at the schema) but perhaps Button is an empty element, so in your layout it should look like this:
> <Button android:id="@+id/installRing" > android:layout_width="wrap_content" > android:layout_height="52px" > android:background="@drawable/installBtn" /> That is, close the element " />" and remove the "</Button>" element end.
