OnClick and onTouch

I have a activity where I have two imagesViews.

This to imagesViews has onClickListener, because I need to know which imageView was clicked. After when I click choosen picture I get result which picture was clicked.

I Know need the same result but I need to know where exacly I click on this image. I need precise coordinates where this imageView was clicked. I know that in onTouch method I have functions like I need.

Can I change onClick method on onTouch? Or in onClick can get precise coordinates?

There is no need for you to use the onClick event, since you can easily capture the click using the onTouch callback. A click is a sequence of one ACTION_DOWN action, several ACTION_MOVE actions and one ACTION_UP action. These can be acquired using the event.getAction() method. If you get an ACTION_DOWN event and then an ACTION_UP event - it means that the user has just clicked your View. You can also measure time spent between these events to be sure that it was a simple click, not a long one. And, of course, you can use the event.getX() and event.getY() methods to get the exact touch point. Hope this helps.

onclick cannot do this. You can get them only from an onTouchListener.

you can use onTouch() method for getting touch coordinates 

touchView.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {
    @Override
    public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
        System.out.println("Touch coordinates : " +
            String.valueOf(event.getX()) + "x" + String.valueOf(event.getY()));
            return true;
    }
});
