Please check this xml code. Here i have removed your color and the String Part.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
    android:gravity="center_horizontal"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <LinearLayout
        android:id="@+id/linearLayout"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
        android:gravity="center_vertical"
        android:orientation="vertical" >

        <Button
            android:id="@+id/category"
            android:layout_width="250dp"
            android:layout_height="60dp"
            android:text="choose_category"
            android:textSize="18dp" />

        <Button
            android:id="@+id/range"
            android:layout_width="250dp"
            android:layout_height="60dp"
            android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
            android:text="select_range"
            android:textSize="18dp" />

        <Button
            android:id="@+id/useMyCurrentLocation"
            android:layout_width="250dp"
            android:layout_height="60dp"
            android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
            android:text="button_use_my_current_location"
            android:textSize="18dp" />
    </LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>

Also you can see the Screen shot attached below:

you have 4th line of

    <RelativeLayout android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" lay>

You might need to remove the lay at the end of it :)
