    You can either use:

    • a GridLayout (for API < 14, there is a support library available somewhere on GitHub)
    • a vertical LinearLayout containing two horizontal LinearLayouts
    • a single RelativeLayout

    For the buttons, use TextView or Button with a top drawable.

    Please note that the dashboard pattern is now discouraged (link 1, link 2) (you should present useful information to the user on first screen such as there latest trips, friend’s news, …).

    Instead of that, you could put your buttons in a sliding menu (jfeinstein has a nice implementation on github which can be integrated within an hour)
