Create a view using XML

<FrameLayout 
     android:id="@+id/framelayout"
     android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
     android:layout_width="wrap_content">

     <ImageView 
          android:id="@+id/ImageView01"
          android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
          android:layout_width="wrap_content"/>

    <TextView android:id="@+id/text_view"
          android:layout_width="wrap_content" 
          android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

</FrameLayout>

Get the view and set your values

FrameLayout view = (FrameLayout)findViewById(R.id.framelayout);

Generate a bitmap

view.setDrawingCacheEnabled(true);
view.buildDrawingCache();
Bitmap bm = view.getDrawingCache();

use this bitmap as your marker

Marker myMarker = mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions()
   .position(0,0)
   .icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.fromBitmap(mybitmap)));
