I've tried all scaletypes, but all of them result in the image to be at the left corner of the imageview.

 <ImageView
    android:id="@+id/image"
    android:scaleType="centerInside"

    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"

    android:layout_marginRight="6dip"
    android:background="#0000" 
    android:src="@drawable/icon1" />
