  1. The LinearLayout does not work well with gravities along it's main direction (that is, a horizontal LinearLayout does not support left,right or center_horizontal, and a vertical top,bottom or center_vertical).
    You could instead try a RelativeLayout and using the layout_alignParentLeft/layout_alignParentRight attributes (or any of the other available ones) to get the correct result.

  2. You should use Relative layout

    <RelativeLayout android:layout_height="44dip"
    android:layout_width="320dip"
    android:background="@drawable/header_320_44dip">
    <ImageView
    android:layout_width="121dip"
    android:layout_height="32dip"
    android:layout_centerInParent="true"
    android:layout_marginLeft="90dip"
    android:background="@drawable/icon">

    </ImageView>

    <ImageView
    android:layout_width="52dip"
    android:layout_height="32dip"
    android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
    android:background="@drawable/btn_back_52x32">

    </ImageView>


    <ImageButton
    android:layout_height="34dip"
    android:layout_width="64dip"
    android:id="@+id/btn_header_what_search_user"
    android:layout_marginLeft="0dip"
    android:layout_alignParentright="true"
    android:background="@drawable/btn_nedit_nontext_64x34">
    </ImageButton>
    </RelativeLayout>

  3. Another solution might be the use of layout weights. Set a total weight of 3 and then set a weight of 1 for each of the image views. This way the layout is split up in 3 parts and you should be able to adjust the gravity for each part. Something like that:

    <LinearLayout
    ...
    android:weightSum="3" >

    <ImageView
    ...
    android:layout_width="0dp"
    android:layout_weight="1" />
