Any suggestion?

You can adjust the button transparency level with this code.
mybutton.getBackground().setAlpha(45);The number 45 value here ranges from 0 – 255
If you are using a .ninePatch.png file you can obviously reduce the opacity of the button via your image editing software and save it and use it in your xml.
Tip: Semi transparent buttons indicate a button is disabled. According to android design guidelines. So use it wisely.
You can set a button disabled by
myButton.setEnabled(false);
