            (ExpandableListView.ExpandableListContextMenuInfo)menuInfo;
    int type=ExpandableListView.getPackedPositionType(info.packedPosition);
    Log.e("type",""+type);
    menu.setHeaderTitle("Options");
    menu.add(1, 1, 1, "Edit");
}
@Override
public boolean onContextItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
    ExpandableListView.ExpandableListContextMenuInfo info = (ExpandableListView.ExpandableListContextMenuInfo)item.getMenuInfo();

    if(item.getItemId()==1)
    {
        Log.e("clickd","menu");

Use this one it worked for me. After setting your adapter to Expandable ListView write it.

setListAdapter(expListAdapter);
            registerForContextMenu(getExpandableListView());

You have also to set the view to be long clickable in getChildView(...) of your Adapter.

public View getChildView(int groupPosition, final int childPosition, boolean isLastChild, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
    ... 
    convertView.setLongClickable( true);

Just use:

@Override
public boolean isChildSelectable(int groupPosition, int childPosition) {
    return true;
}

in your ExpandableListViewAdapter
