            />        
    </LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>

What is the proper way to center the image and text below it?

Many thanks in advance.

Try this its work for me

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    tools:context=".MainActivity" >
<Button
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
        android:layout_marginBottom="151dp"
        android:onClick="onClick"
        android:drawableTop="@drawable/ic_launcher"
        android:text="Button" />
</RelativeLayout>

Try change the button to LinearLayout and use same onclicklistener on fakebutton

    <LinearLayout
        android:id="@+id/fakeButton"
        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal"
        android:orientation="vertical" >

        <ImageView
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:src="@drawable/icon_big_evento" />

        <TextView
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="@string/menu_about" />
    </LinearLayout>
