I want to handle the touch event on click of menu item in the menu, and on click of spinner text in the spinner and on select date or on click ok button in a date control. OnUserInteraction() method is not triggered when click on these above items.
Note: Just to clearify, I know about onClick event. but like onUserInteraction(), whenever user touch the screen, I am notifed and I do some stuff. But this event is not invoked when user touches on extra menu item(which comes as drop down), spinner drop down and or button click in dialog.
So is there some way to be notified for the same. I know we have some event(I can say that coz screen brightness increase when left for some time and user touch any of the above mentioned item).
Can anybody tell me, is there is any other touch events available for handle this?
Thanks

I have a listview where I am capturing both a list view item click (to change available options) and a list view double tap (to move to a new screen). When the user double taps, the event seqeunce is Item Click, Double Tap, Item Click.
The second Item click event is overwriting some of the logic behind the double tap event. What is the best way to disable or cancel the second item click? I thought the "Handled := true" would work but it made no difference.
Any help greatly appreciated
The documentation for OnItemActivatedListener.onItemActivated says that this method is
Called when an item is "activated". An item is activated, for example, when no selection exists and the user taps an item with her finger, or double clicks an item with a pointing device like a Mouse.
But, when no selection exists and user taps an item with her(/his) finger, the item does not get activated. As I know, when there is no selection, you have to long press an item for activating it, and only the subsequent items can be activated just by tap. (By activation, here, I mean item-selection. Sorry that Android messed up with their terminology.)
So, I wanted to clarify if this method is called when the item is just-tapped or activated by long-press.
Long-press doesn't work, but it gets triggered when an item is being tapped.
And it doesn't even add the item to the selection, unless explicitly adding it.
Is it possible to simulate the event of anchors (html) with the Android interface?
I mean I have a listview with several titles and I want to press a button that moves the screen to the specific title.
If you know the position of the item in the List, you can use setSelection() in your button's click handler.

I have a ListView containing items with one button each and I want to handle user events in this order:
TouchEvent on ListView.
TouchEvent on ListItem.
Click on Button inside ListItem.
How can I do this?
If understand correctly, with a single user click, you want to trigger the event (but not catch it) for each one of those items? You can't. I'd make either the list item or the button the clickable item, handle that, and do all of the logic you need to do in that handler.
When I press Menu and the ListView is presented, the top item is usually highlighted when the Activity is first started. I can click and make it not highlighted. What might be causing this? Actually I don't care about that, I just need a hack to stop it. I would post a code snippet but the ListActivity and its xml exceed 600 lines and I have no idea where the problem lies. Any ideas?
The answer can be pretty easy: The first entry of every ListView is highlighted, when you are in the "non touch mode". That means when you navigate with the trackball.
Test it: Go the the home screen. Press the menu button and select "settings" with the trackball. The list displaying the settings main menu is now highlighted in the first row.
Doing the same without the trackball but with a touch on the menu entry "settings" the new list should be not highlighted.
