I have done the examples for PreferenceFragments and SharedPreferences on the ANdroid developer website, however I'm running into an issue now. I want to be able to access the preferences in my "Settings" screen from different Activities but I don't know what the name of the preference file generated by my preference fragment is.
I have a very simple preferences setup in which a PreferenceFragment is added to an Activity. The Activity is also an OnSharedPreferenceChangeListener, since I want to update the summary of a particular preference whenever that preference is updated.
I created a wallpaper (for my Android 4.0.3) but I have a problem with the preferences.
When I try to invoke a service http-get from PreferenceFragment, I do not get any response. In practice, it seems that call is lost.
Background
I'm making an app that has some settings, and I want to use the built in PreferenceActivity or PreferenceFragment for the job
The problem
Some of the preferences have a long title which I cannot shorten, plus I think that if I ever localize the app (translate to multiple languages) I would face the same problem (for example in German, which has quite long words, sometimes).
What you
I have an Android application that has many user preferences. Some preferences are custom, meaning that a Preference class modifies a value a little bit. Most of the preferences have defaults, which are applied via call to PreferenceManager.setDefaultValues() that honors such custom preferences.
I have extended DialogPreference in order to get a dialog with some NumberPickers in it.
I'm creating an app which has several users. I've created an object (user), which holds more details (name, age, custom objects etc). Because I have a custom object, I know it'll be difficult to use shared preferences. What would be the best way to store the users data? I've looked into SQLite, but I can't find a way to save custom objects into SQLite?
Any advice would be appreciated.
As per tittle, how do I reset all custom view setting for all folders that I previously set a custom view mode (icon/list/compact) for? I made a change to the Default View setting in Preferences and I want old folders to use that new setting.
I have an ArrayList that can contain 1 to 15 strings. Those strings need to be saved in my shared preferences, now I know how to iterate trough the array to get the strings. What I don't know, is there a clean way to dynamically add the strings to my shared preferences file?
