    <ImageView
            android:layout_width="121dip"
            android:layout_height="32dip"
            android:layout_gravity="center"

Another solution might be the use of layout weights. Set a total weight of 3 and then set a weight of 1 for each of the image views. This way the layout is split up in 3 parts and you should be able to adjust the gravity for each part. Something like that:

<LinearLayout
   ...
   android:weightSum="3" >

   <ImageView
       ...
       android:layout_width="0dp"
       android:layout_weight="1" />

You should use Relative layout

<RelativeLayout android:layout_height="44dip"
              android:layout_width="320dip"
              android:background="@drawable/header_320_44dip">
    <ImageView
            android:layout_width="121dip"
            android:layout_height="32dip"
           android:layout_centerInParent="true"
            android:layout_marginLeft="90dip"
            android:background="@drawable/icon">

    </ImageView>

    <ImageView
            android:layout_width="52dip"
            android:layout_height="32dip"
            android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
            android:background="@drawable/btn_back_52x32">

    </ImageView>


    <ImageButton
            android:layout_height="34dip"
            android:layout_width="64dip"
            android:id="@+id/btn_header_what_search_user"
            android:layout_marginLeft="0dip"
android:layout_alignParentright="true"
            android:background="@drawable/btn_nedit_nontext_64x34">
    </ImageButton>
</RelativeLayout>

The LinearLayout does not work well with gravities along it's main direction (that is, a horizontal LinearLayout does not support left,right or center_horizontal, and a vertical top,bottom or center_vertical).
You could instead try a RelativeLayout and using the layout_alignParentLeft/layout_alignParentRight attributes (or any of the other available ones) to get the correct result.
