Actually I've found the following works well:
@Override
public boolean dispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev){
gd.onTouchEvent(ev);
return super.dispatchTouchEvent(ev);
}
calling super.dispatchTouchEvent allows all of the other views to
receive their events.
For some reason, in my layouts, onTouch is never called for the
Activity, so this is the only way I've found to detect gestures on the
Activity.
