This is not possible.

Android does not allow you to intercept touch events on the screen when outside your own app as this would allow malicious apps to take over all other apps and render the phone useless.

Furthermore, it would very quickly get annoying for the users, particularly if they're playing a game or something that requires a lot of touch events taking place.

I'm afraid it's impossible. You can intercept touch events only in your Activity. Similar questions had been already asked https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/android-beginners/H45Xwm43NGQ
