I have already tried 3 different approaches to the problem: The first was this one i described previously, which would be the ideal for my app. The second one, i created an ActivityGroup which was responsible for starting two activities and on LongClick event I was swaping the DecorViews of the activities. Still, the same problem happened: the ACTION_UP was being delivered to the wrong activity. My last approach was to create a single activity and call setContentView to swap between the two layouts, and still, the event was not delivered to the right view. I'm just wondering if there is a way for an Activity to request Input events...
@Mark: you are right, i messed those approaches a little. I have the getParent only when I use an ActivityGroup.
