Android development: OnTouchEvent

Question

I'm using:

@Override
    public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {

I'm using surfaceview.

But when I try:

if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP) {
    Log.d("STATE: ", "Up");

It is never called. What is the reason?

It is really annoying, because I want my player to move when I hold down the screen.

Well ive tried DOWN and it works but not UP or MOVE or CANSEL — carefacerz, Jul 14 '11 at 19:35
Just curiously stupid you do know up is not the direction but the process of raising your finger? — Ravi Vyas, Jul 14 '11 at 19:39

Ensure you are returning true return true; after you complete processing of the event (ACTION_UP in this case) and also returning super.onTouchEvent(event) for every other event (i.e. the default)?
