Answer 1

Idea for your view, Coding is your task.

Top Most Parent is RelativeLayout .

|----- Relative Layout.
        |--- LinearLayout-1 --> City, Country, Global ( all weight = 1 )
        |--- LinearLayout-2 --> ( layout_below="LinearLayout-1" )
                  |--- 3 x ImageView  ( all weight = 1, Gravity=Center )
                       |--- Use View.SetVisibility(View.Invisible) to show/hide
        |--- ListView --> ( layout_below="LinearLayout-1" ) // Still below LL1.

Answer 2

Instead of horizontal linear layout with buttons you could go for tabs. And here you can read how to achieve that arrow effect.

Answer 3

Create one image with arrow pointing down at the center. When you click on any button, in your OnClickListener, add a code the replace the button image with this new image.

btnCity.setBackground(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.selectedbtnimage));

You will need to add some more code the reset the images of other buttons to origninal button images.
