Android ImageButton image comparison

I have this little code here:

MainActivity.java:

public void Images(View v)
{
    ImageButton i = (ImageButton) v;
    i.setImageResource(R.drawable.c4_pressed_button);
}

MainActivity.xml:

<ImageButton
            android:id="@+id/b1"
            android:layout_width="0dp"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:background="@android:color/transparent"
            android:contentDescription="@string/contentDescription"
            android:src="@drawable/c4_button" 
            android:onClick="Images"/>

All I want to do is to compare two images ('drawables'?) from the ImageButton, just like that:

public void Images(View v)
{
    ImageButton i = (ImageButton) v;
    if(xxxx == R.drawable.c4_pressed_button)
        i.setImageResource(R.drawable.c4_button);
    else i.setImageResource(R.drawable.c4_pressed_button);
}

And I don't know what I have to put in xxxx to make that comparison. I know R.drawable.c4_pressed_button is an Int, but I don't know how to get the ImageButton image to compare it to that. Any help?

Use setTag() and getTag() method 

public void Images(View v)
{
ImageButton i = (ImageButton) v;
i.setImageResource(R.drawable.c4_pressed_button);
i.setTag("R.drawable.c4_pressed_button");
}

And then do comparison

public void Images(View v)
{
ImageButton i = (ImageButton) v;
String imageName = (String) i.getTag();
if(imageName.equals("R.drawable.c4_pressed_button"))
    i.setImageResource(R.drawable.c4_button);
else i.setImageResource(R.drawable.c4_pressed_button);
}
