TO detect onMapLongClick, implement OnMapLongClickListener and call myMap.setOnMapLongClickListener(this) to register. Override onMapLongClick(LatLng point) to add marker by calling myMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(point).title("title")).

public class MainActivity extends Activity

 TextView tvLocInfo;

 @Override

   = (MapFragment)myFragmentManager.findFragmentById(R.id.map);
  myMap = myMapFragment.getMap();

  myMap.setMapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_HYBRID);
  //myMap.setMapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_NORMAL);
