Hi Romain, I have read this thread, and tried to access a string resource from a System application from my Application.
I'm trying to access a string resource inside com.android.settings, the "settings_label" resources. Is that possible? I tried to put something like this in the layout/myfile.xml: android:text="@com.android.settings:string/settings_label" I'm getting a compiler error.

Actually, you can. That's what Home does for shortcuts for instance :) But to do this you need the package name and the resource id within the target package. -- Romain Guy Android framework engineer [email protected] Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to provide private support.
