My code is here:

Shape:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item>
        <shape android:shape="rectangle">
            <solid android:color="@color/material_grey_50" />
            <stroke android:color="@color/material_grey_500"
                android:width="1dp" />
            <corners android:radius="10dp" />
        </shape>
    </item>
</selector>

GridView Item:

<ImageButton
   android:id="@+id/buttonRemove"
   android:layout_width="0dp"
   android:layout_height="43dp"
   android:layout_weight="5"
   android:background="@color/material_cyan_300"
   android:src="@mipmap/ic_action_remove"/>

Whats the point of the selector instead of shape drawable? How are you even using/referencing it here? — petey, Dec 03 '15 at 16:15

You can to use library: CustomShapeImageView

for example:

  <com.meg7.widget.CustomShapeImageView
        android:layout_width="64dp"
        android:layout_height="64dp"
        android:src="@drawable/sample"
        app:shape="circle"
        android:scaleType="centerCrop" />
