Google Maps API v2: How to make markers clickable?

by

All markers in Google Android Maps Api v2 are clickable. You don’t need to set any additional properties to your marker.
What you need to do – is to register marker click callback to your googleMap and handle click within callback:

public class MarkerDemoActivity extends android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity
    implements OnMarkerClickListener
{
    private Marker myMarker;    

    private void setUpMap()
    {
        .......
        googleMap.setOnMarkerClickListener(this);

        myMarker = googleMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions()
                    .position(latLng)
                    .title("My Spot")
                    .snippet("This is my spot!")
                    .icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.defaultMarker(BitmapDescriptorFactory.HUE_AZURE)));
        ......
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onMarkerClick(final Marker marker) {

        if (marker.equals(myMarker)) 
        {
            //handle click here
        }
    }
}

here is a good guide on google about marker customization
