You need to do as follows:

LinearLayout myLayout = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.linearLayout1);
for ( int i = 0; i < myLayout.getChildCount();  i++ ){
    View view = myLayout.getChildAt(i);
    view.setEnabled(false); // Or whatever you want to do with the view.
 }

Then create an alert Dialog and then

myLayout.setOnclickListener(new OnClickListener(){

   onClick(){
     dialog.show();
   }
});
