Well there's a few things you can do in this situation.

You can do this:

public class MyClass {
  public void doProviderEnabledStuff(String provider){}

  MyLocListenerClass myListner = new MyLocListenerClass() {
    public void onProviderEnabled (String provider) {
       doProviderEnabledStuff(provider);
    }
  };
}

Or you can just extend your class constructor to require a context and
use that object to get your preferences, you probably want to use the
application context for such a thing.

Or for a more general solution, you can tell your extended class to
broadcast an Intent and who ever cares to listen can register for it.
