I would like to have a Preferences activity that has icons like the

It uses a special Preference called IconPreferenceScreen. Link:

Its a good alternative while we wait for Google to make the lock

Smart Lock lets you use one app, and only one app at a time, without
unlocking your phone.

I would like the back button to work exactly like the home button in
my activity. I know that doesn't sounds like something I would want to
do, but it makes sense in the context of my app.

To be honest, I would prefer to be able to specify package
