To catch a long click and use it you need to provide appropriate listener to button:

View.OnLongClickListener listener = new View.OnLongClickListener() {
    public boolean onLongClick(View v) {
        Button clickedButton = (Button) v;
        String buttonText = clickedButton.getText().toString();
        Log.v(TAG, "button long pressed --> " + buttonText);
        return true;
    }
};

button.setOnLongClickListener(listener);
