Answer 1

I think that the Object can have either an onClick or an onTouch, and it will use whatever the last one defined is. I have noticed this recently in some of my apps too.

According to the developer docs

returning true from these event listeners will stop the propagation of the event to other event listeners and will also block the callback to the default event handler in the View.So be certain that you want to terminate the event when you return true

So perhaps returning false in your methods that handle the events would bring you a step closer to what you want to achieve
