[android-developers] Re: Toggle button with more states that two

I think this would also break the user experience. Better use a
spinner. You can show different "foreground" images if you use proper
layouts and adapter.
For both button and spinner you could simply set a new button
background when the item has changed, i.e. in the OnClick- or
OnItemSelectedListener.
However, I don't think background images (at least if they still
should look like common button surfaces) are quite intuitive, esp. not
with so many states.
Depending on your screen layout, it might also be a good idea to
simply show an icon and/or text with prev./next state arrow buttons or
tabs. I for one wouldn't like to press a button 5 times to get to the
previous state again...
