I want to trigger an activity via long press on home screen.

Is this possible via broadcast receivers? Should I make a service?

Well let me be more specific. I have a tutorial that shows the actions (single tap, long press, on scroll etc) and on long press starts an activity that gets the GPS location. Now I want to do this when I long press the home screen. Is this possible? I have to say that I am new to Android development and I need to apologize if am not understanding something right away. Do you have any other suggestions on what I am trying to do?

    As @st0le indicated, no, unless you write your own home screen.
