Question

Answer 1

Instead of using onItemLongClick you can use

public void onCreateContextMenu(final ContextMenu menu, 
                    final View v, final ContextMenuInfo menuInfo) {
 ...
}

where you setup the options for edit and delete or whatever you need to.

The actions for the item selected from the context menu can be processed in

public boolean onContextItemSelected(final MenuItem item)
