Hi,
this seems to be an easy one, but i am not finding a solution for
it...actually there are 2 different questions relating to settings here:

i created a PreferenceActivity for my application (it is a softkeyboard) i
am trying to add those settings to the Settings->Locale & Text screen next
to my Keboard. do i need to define something in the manifest to make it
appear there too?
if so my manifest is below:
<activity android:name="Prefs" android:label="@string/settings_title">
            <intent-filter>
                 <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/>
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>

the activity works fine if i get to it through the application



also, i was trying to get a ListPreference value to show it in the summary.
i could not get it unless i made a change to the list (invoking
ChangeListener). why can i not see it when i create the ListPrefernece (i am
guessing it is something to do with the lifecycle but i don't know what)
i ended up taking the existing preferences and setting them in the list. it
seems weird to do that as, obviously, the list knows it's default value. it
shows it to me when i click it.
SharedPreferences prefs =
PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(getApplicationContext());
    defaultStr =prefs.getString(LIST_PREF, "Not Available");
    listPref.setSummary("Current default value is: "+defaultStr);

Thanks,
