Let button have the same size

My layout code as below:

    <LinearLayout
        android:id="@+id/linearLayout2"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
        android:gravity="center_vertical"
        android:orientation="horizontal" >

        <Button
            android:id="@+id/btn_left"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_weight="1.0"
            android:text="Phone Files" />

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/list_title"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_weight="0.5"
            android:gravity="center_horizontal"
            android:text="Photos"
            android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />

        <Button
            android:id="@+id/btn_right"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_weight="1.0"
            android:text="Save" />
    </LinearLayout>

How to let the btn_left and btn_right have the same size?

If there is no any more importance of weight then just remove the weight from your layout and give equal size to that both Button. See Below:

Edited:

Create the String in to your string.xml file as like:

 <string name="button_name">Phone "\n" Files</string>

then Put the Below code and it will show you the Button with two line text.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <LinearLayout         
        xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:id="@+id/linearLayout2"         
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"         
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"         
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"         
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"         
        android:gravity="center_vertical"         
        android:orientation="horizontal" >          

        <Button             
            android:id="@+id/btn_left"             
            android:layout_width="100dp"             
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"             
            android:text="@string/button_name"/>          
        <TextView             
            android:id="@+id/list_title"             
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"             
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"             
            android:layout_weight="0.5"             
            android:gravity="center_horizontal"             
            android:text="Photos"             
            android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />          
        <Button             
            android:id="@+id/btn_right"             
            android:layout_width="100dp"             
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"             
            android:text="Save" />     
    </LinearLayout>

Hope it works as you want. Thanks. Enjoy.

Try adding android:weightSum="2.5" as an attribute to your LinearLayout tag and change the layout_width values of all three widgets to android:layout_width="0dip"
