Detect Double click dpad center button in Android Leanback

has anyone successfully mimicked the Weather Network tv app's double click center button?

I thought overriding a listener method like onGenericMotionEvent to the view will work but it does not seem to be the case. Even did a lastClicked variable to determine when the next center button click will occur to determine a double click, but still no luck.

I wish to have items in the VerticalGridFragment be able to detect a double click.

Any tips or help would be great.
