I am not getting a stylus button event from the Samsung S-Pen in my onTouch listener. Everything is working fine for onHover.

hoverListener = new View.OnHoverListener() {    
    public boolean onHover(View v, MotionEvent event) {
        Log.i("TEST", "tooltype = " + event.getToolType(0) + ", button = " + event.getButtonState());
        return false;
      }
    };

touchListener = new View.OnTouchListener() {    
    public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
        Log.i("TEST", "tooltype = " + event.getToolType(0) + ", button = " + event.getButtonState());
        return false;
      }
    };

    backgroundView.setOnTouchListener(touchListener);
    backgroundView.setOnHoverListener(hoverListener);

post the code where you add the listener – Rod_Algonquin Jun 16 '14 at 05:15
The methods are called, but I am printing out zeros while pressing the button in onTouch and twos while pressing the button in onHover. – mtbomb Jun 16 '14 at 05:19
Was this ever solved? – Alon Minski Apr 05 '15 at 13:48
No. I was never able to get button events from Samsung while the pen is down. They override the behavior with their own functions. – mtbomb Apr 07 '15 at 00:05
