Is the code generalized for any preferences? Either way, I'd like to see
how you've done it as I've had problems using a database for preferences.
Thanks,

I've fought doing that myself, especially because you can't use the
PreferenceActivity and have to redo your entire UI.
It would be really cool if we could plug in different "Preference" storage
solutions. One could be the SharedPreferences object, but another could be
a database. By having a Sh
Make sure you add
android:presistent="true"
to your PreferenceScreen element in your preferences xml file.

I believe there is still the multi-thread access problem I posted
about before.
If you have a receiver (like I do) and it has a reference to the
SharedPreferences for your application opened, then your application
tries to get the preferences, a blank SharedPreferences object will be
returned. T
A while ago, I posted (see links below) about a problem with my app.
Whenever the app was killed by the OS, either memory cleanup or device
restart, all the preferences were reset. Since my app worked entirely
from those preferences, it made it pretty much useless.
I found out that persistent fo
What I'm taking from this is that if my BroadcastReceiver, which runs
off an AlarmManager, is accessing the preferences and the user then
opens the PreferenceActivity in a separate process the behavior is
undefined and most likely causes the PreferenceActivity to not "find"
the existing values?

I have a PreferenceActivity that uses an xml file to automatically
populate and save the preferences. Sometimes though, when that
activity is started, the preferences are blank. However, if you go
back later, they will reappear.
This is causing a lot of headaches with my app. I have a Service
Now I'm not sure what clears my preferences. I've tested the USB
connection theory and it is quite inconsistent. Has anyone else
experienced a loss of preference state in their apps?

I wrote an app, GReader Notifier (http://www.ebessette.com/d/
greadernotifier), that I've published to the Market. However, every
time someone connects their G1 to their computer via USB, the
preferences get reset, which basically stops the application from
working as users expect.

Android will create a new icon in the status bar. You need to use the

I have created a service that runs a Timer and TimerTask. That timer
may fire every 5 minutes to 4 hours, depending on the user's
settings. My problem is that my service eventually gets destroyed.
Is there a setting to keep it alive, or someway to tell the OS to
restart it once enough resources

If you are creating a ListActivity with a CursorAdapter (or

some point. I had a little trouble figuring this out myself, so I

I use an app for my Palm Treo called KeyCaps. It allows you to

holding a key down. I have this set to capitalize the character. The
second is pressing the key twice quickly, which changes the character

One of the best apps I've every bought for my Treo 600/650 is an app
