How can I use my own images for checkboxes and radio buttons? Is there someone who did this and is willing to share his code?

You can define a BitmapDrawable object and set it to the radiobuttons.

Dim bdw As BitmapDrawable
bdw.Initialize(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "Image.png")
rbtTest.Background = bdw

You can do this directly in the Designer.
Add the images.
Select in Drawable : BitmapDrawable
And select the image.

Best regards.

OK, but how to specify the selected/unselected image?

You should use StateListDrawable: StateListDrawable example

Attached you find a small example code.

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    Activity.LoadLayout("main")

    AddStatelistRadioButton(rbtTest1, "Flag_GB_1.png", "Flag_GB_2.png", "Flag_GB_3.png", Gravity.CENTER)
    AddStatelistRadioButton(rbtTest2, "Flag_F_1.png", "Flag_F_2.png", "Flag_F_3.png", Gravity.CENTER)
  
End Sub

Sub AddStatelistRadioButton(rbt As RadioButton, ImageEnabled As String, ImageChecked As String, ImagePressed As String, mGravity As Int)
    Dim sdw As StateListDrawable
    sdw.Initialize
    Dim bdwEnabled, bdwChecked, bdwPressed As BitmapDrawable
    bdwEnabled.Initialize(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, ImageEnabled))
    bdwEnabled.Gravity = mGravity
    bdwChecked.Initialize(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, ImageChecked))
    bdwChecked.Gravity = mGravity
    bdwPressed.Initialize(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, ImagePressed))
    bdwPressed.Gravity = mGravity
    sdw.AddState(sdw.State_Checked, bdwChecked)
    sdw.AddState(sdw.State_Pressed, bdwPressed)
    sdw.AddCatchAllState(bdwEnabled)
    rbt.Background = sdw
End Sub

If you don't want the 'pressed' state you can remove the relevant lines.

Best regards.
