It is not possible to change the timer on the onLongClick event, it is managed by android itself.
What is possible is to use .setOnTouchListener().
Then register when the MotionEvent is a ACTION_DOWN.
Note the current time in a variable.
Then when a MotionEvent with ACTION_UP is registered and the current_time – actionDown time > 1200 ms then do something.
so pretty much:
Button button = new Button();
long then = 0;
button.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() {
@Override
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
if(event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN){
then = (Long) System.currentTimeMillis();
}
else if(event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP){
if(((Long) System.currentTimeMillis() - then) > 1200){
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
})
