Basically, a click is a combination of ACTION_DOWN, some ACTION_MOVE's and an ACTION_UP touch event actions, that appear in a small area. All you need to do is to check, whether your ACTION_UP appeared near to your ACTION_DOWN. If you need some extra accuracy, you can check the time interval between those actions to be sure this was a click. Just store position and time of the ACTION_DOWN and compare it to your ACTION_UP's position and time - and you'll be able to differentiate click from fling or something else. Hope this helps.
