Timer timer = new Timer();
TimerTask timerTask  = new TimerTask() {
@Override
public void run() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
if(loadFirst){
loadFirst = false;
layout_reference.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.imagename1);
}else{
loadFirst = true;
layout_reference.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.imagename2);
}
}
};
timer.schedule(timerTask,0,10000);//fires every 10secs

try this code in code and also declare a boolean variable "boolean loadFirst = false" in your oncreate method()

try this way : 

public class mainActivity extends Activity 
    {
        @Override
        public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) 
        {
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
            setContentView(R.layout.main);

            Resources res = getResources(); //resource handle
        Drawable drawable = res.getDrawable(R.drawable.images1); //new Image that was added to the res folder
        LinearLayout linearLayout =   (LinearLayout)findViewById(R.id.etxtLayout); 
        linearLayout.setBackgroundDrawable(drawable);
        }
    }

Create a thread and assign the time of sleep and put the the layout.setBackgroundDrawable(drawable) with sleep method and can use a flag variable to switch between both the background drawables, if 1 set 2 and if 2 set 1.

or you can put the layout.setBackgroundDrawable(drawable) code into runOnUIThread.
