Your are probably looking for a normal long click? You will have to set your view to be long clickable by adding android:longClickable to your views xml, or by calling setLongClickable(true). Then you can add an OnLongClickListener to the view. I dont know of a way to determine exactly how long the long click is. But the default long click is the same as the google maps long click that you mentioned.
