Here’s a code snippet borrowed from libgdx live wallpaper backend (WallpaperService.Engine);

@Override
public Bundle onCommand(final String pAction, final int pX,
           final int pY, final int pZ, final Bundle pExtras,
           final boolean pResultRequested) {

    if (pAction.equals(WallpaperManager.COMMAND_TAP)) {
        ((AndroidInputLW) app.getInput()).onTap(pX, pY);
    } else if (pAction.equals(WallpaperManager.COMMAND_DROP)) {
        ((AndroidInputLW) app.getInput()).onDrop(pX, pY);
    }

    return super.onCommand(pAction, pX, pY, pZ, pExtras,
                           pResultRequested);
}

I’ve never tried this myself but would expect utilizing Engine.onCommand method should be rather straightforward as long as you keep receiving these events.
