My problem is that when I start application and user didn't open my PreferenceActivity so when I retrieve them don't get any default values defined in my preference.xml file.
preference.xml file:
<?xml version="
1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<PreferenceScreen xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:key="applicationPreference" android:title="@string/config"
>
<ListPreference
android:key="pref1"
android:defaultValue="default"
android:title="Title"
android:summary="Summary"
android:entries="@array/entry_names"
android:entryValues="@array/entry_values"
android:dialogTitle="@string/dialog_title"
/>
</PreferenceScreen>
Snippet from my main Activity (onCreate method):
SharedPreferences appPreferences = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this);
String pref1 = appPreferences.getString("pref1", null);
In result I end up with a null value.
