Disable or prevent multitouch in Activity

The easiest way I found to force single touch across an entire app is to set it using a theme:

<style name="MyTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light">
    <item name="android:windowEnableSplitTouch">false</item>
    <item name="android:splitMotionEvents">false</item>
</style>

Manifest:

  <application
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@style/MyTheme" >
