onKeyDown/onKeyUp/onTrackballEvent does not fire in a View

When trying to get keypad events in a view, the view does not get those events unless explicitly sent by the Activity, so to fix this add the following code in the Activity:

@Override
public boolean onTrackballEvent(MotionEvent event) {
    if (mView.dispatchTrackballEvent(event) == true)
        return true;
       
    return super.onTrackballEvent(event);
}
