in onClick method you need to change the Button's image, this way..

public void onClick(View v) {
    if(v==buttonName){
        buttonName.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.imageName);
    }       
}

Assuming an ImageButton... You can change the background image in an onClick listener, similar to the following:

myButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            public void onClick(View view) {
                //set button image
                myButton.setImageBitmap(myBitmapFile)
            }
        });
