Android Prefererences -

i'm coming think problem preferences not being done correctly why cannot access tem. here preferences:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <preferencescreen xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >      <preferencecategory          android:title="@string/pref_user_profile"          android:textsize="20px"         android:layout="@layout/pref_layout">          <switchpreference                  android:title="@+string/pref_frequency"                 android:summary="@+string/pref_frequency_summary"                 android:key="frequency"                  android:defaultvalue="true"             android:layout="@layout/pref_layout"/>          <switchpreference                  android:title="@+string/pref_time"                 android:summary="@+string/pref_time_summary"                 android:key="time"                 android:defaultvalue="true"             android:layout="@layout/pref_layout"/>          <switchpreference                   android:title="@+string/pref_symptothermal"                 android:summary="@+string/pref_symptothermal_summary"                 android:key="symptothermal"                 android:defaultvalue="true"                 android:layout="@layout/pref_layout"/>          <switchpreference                  android:title="@+string/pref_cervical_mucus"                 android:summary="@+string/pref_cervical_mucus_summary"                 android:key="cervical_mucus"                 android:defaultvalue="true"             android:layout="@layout/pref_layout"/>              <switchpreference                  android:title="@+string/pref_mucus_stamps"                 android:summary="@+string/pref_mucus_stamps_summary"                 android:key="mucus_stamps"                 android:defaultvalue="true"             android:layout="@layout/pref_layout"/>          <switchpreference                  android:title="@+string/pref_fertile_infertile"                 android:summary="@+string/pref_fertile_infertile_summary"                 android:key="fertile_infertil"                  android:defaultvalue="true"             android:layout="@layout/pref_layout"/>     </preferencecategory>  </preferencescreen> 

java:

package com.projectcaruso.naturalfamilyplaning;  import com.projectcaruso.naturalfamilyplanning.r; import android.os.bundle; import android.preference.preferenceactivity;  public class usersettingactivity extends preferenceactivity {      @override     public void oncreate(bundle savedinstancestate) {         super.oncreate(savedinstancestate);          addpreferencesfromresource(r.xml.settings);      } } 

here call settings menu:

@override     public boolean onoptionsitemselected(menuitem item) {         final int result_settings = 1;          switch (item.getitemid()) {         case r.id.projectcaruso:             util.gotogithub(this);             return true;         case r.id.about:             new alertdialog.builder(this)             .settitle(r.string.about)             .setmessage(html.fromhtml(getstring(r.string.about_msg)))             .show();             break;         case r.id.licenses:             new alertdialog.builder(this)             .settitle(r.string.licenses)             .setmessage(html.fromhtml(getstring(r.string.license_detail)))             .show();             break;         case r.id.contact:             break;         case r.id.settings:             intent j = new intent(this, usersettingactivity.class);             startactivityforresult(j, result_settings);             break;         }         return super.onoptionsitemselected(item);     }      @override     public boolean oncreateoptionsmenu(menu menu) {         getsupportmenuinflater().inflate(r.menu.settings, menu);         return true;     }  } 

so appreciated! i'm trying access these preferences cannot. seems saving them fine. able test , run code, change pref's , saves state. when try access them cannot... here's code used try , access them:

edit: i've changed call following , no matter setting still "hello toast 2!" @override public void oncreate(bundle savedinstancestate) { super.oncreate(savedinstancestate); sharedpreferences preferences = this.getactivity().getsharedpreferences("usersettingactivity",0); // inflate layout fragment

            boolean symptothermal = preferences.getboolean("symptothermal", true);              if (!symptothermal) {                 context context = getactivity().getapplicationcontext();                 toast.maketext(context, "hello toast 1!", toast.length_long).show();             } else {                 context context = getactivity().getapplicationcontext();                 toast.maketext(context, "hello toast 2!", toast.length_long).show();             }              if (!symptothermal) {                 textview temp = (textview) getview().findviewbyid(r.id.temp);                 temp.setvisibility(view.gone);             }         } 

the problem how trying access them.

you use line:

sharedpreferences preferences = this.getactivity().getsharedpreferences("pref",0); 

when access preferences stored through preferenceactivity should call default preferences.

sharedpreferences mpreferences = preferencemanager.getdefaultsharedpreferences(this); 

that it.

edit

if making call getdefaultsharedpreferences() fragment, need change value pass parameter. this in above example context, call fragment, following:

sharedpreferences mpreferences = preferencemanager.getdefaultsharedpreferences(getactivity());
