use this for setting image in you button

[yourButton setBackgroundImage:yourImage forState:UIControlStateNormal];

Try this,

UIButton *yourButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
yourButton.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 80, 40);
[yourButton setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"backgroungImage.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[self.view yourButton];
