android:id="@+id/btnSet" means you are adding a widget or view with the name btnset in your R.java file.
android:id="@id/btnSet" means you are using or referring an already defined widget or view with the name btnset

@id/btnSet will try to use existing id "btnSet" while the @+id/btnSet will always create that ID. :) If you use @id/btnSet and the ID doesn't exist, you can encounter an exception.
