I have a tiled background graphic with a header and footer part. Something like this:

enter image description here

How can I use this as background for a android view? The middle part should repeat to fill the screen height (it should NOT stretch like in a 9-patch).

    If I understand you right, you may need to convert the image to a nine-patch graphic.

    EDIT:

    1. Use a BitmapRegionDecoder to get the region that is to be
      repeated as a Bitmap.
    2. Create a BitmapShader with TileMode.CLAMP, TileMode.REPEAT.
    3. Create a Paint and set the bitmap shader.
    4. Draw the bitmap using canvas.drawRect().
    5. Draw the header & footer separately.
