Answer 1

You can simply put the MapView in a Layout itself and override onTouch or set an Click-Listener - easiest way for me since i needed a touch on the whole MapView in my ScrollView.

If you have mapview in scroll view then you have to explicity mention the follwing paramets to the MapView:

mMapView.setClickable(true);
mMapView.setFocusable(true);
mMapView.setDuplicateParentStateEnabled(false);

I have had a same problem for 10 days, but I got a solution a few minutes ago!! Here is the solution. I made a custom MapView and override onTouchEvent() like this.

@Override
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) {
    int action = ev.getAction();
    switch (action) {
    case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
        // Disallow ScrollView to intercept touch events.
        this.getParent().requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(true);
        break;

    case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
        // Allow ScrollView to intercept touch events.
        this.getParent().requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(false);
        break;
    }

    // Handle MapView's touch events.
    super.onTouchEvent(ev);
    return true;
}
