I have a TabHost with 4-5 tabs. I want to have a similar bottom for all the tabs. Is there any way we can add a bottom to all the tabs? Or do I need to place the xml code in every layout file.
Please let me know if any one has the solution.

The simplest solution would be to use the <include>
option in your layout files.
Define the common footer in a layout file all by itself - e.g tab_footer.xml
- and then include it into the the other layouts as follows:
<include layout="@layout/tab_footer">
You can find out more about <include>
in this post on the Android Developers Blog.
One thing that isn't mentioned in that post: if you want to override any layout
parameters when you use <include>
make sure you override layout_width
and layout_height
(even if they're not changing) otherwise your values for other parameters will be silently ignored.
