simply override onFling method for your gallery view and return false — rajpara, Jun 27 '12 at 09:27
@AndroidCoader this question is not repeated. I have done my home work before posting this question. If I have to override `onFling` method I have to extend Gallery class. — AnujAroshA, Jun 27 '12 at 09:28
@AndroidCoader no not the touch. I want to handle Fling attribute at a certain point of the Gallery. Getting the "certain point" part has completed. Only handling Fling is remaining — AnujAroshA, Jun 27 '12 at 09:35

There is a way to achieve this without overwriting the gallery, but this will also stop all other onTouch Events.

Put your Gallery inside a RelativeLayout and create another View that lies over the whole gallery view as a transparent layer.

You now need to overwrite the onInterceptTouch method of this View and return true. Now all touch events should be intercepted in your view and the gallery will not get any touch events that it can use to start a fling.
