copied!<p>This problem was very annoying to me, so after implementing Sandor suggestion, i've searched for better solution in the Android Reference, and look what i've found.<br> <a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/preference/EditTextPreference.html">EditTextPreference</a> inherits from <a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/preference/DialogPreference.html">DialogPreference</a> and this class have the showDialog method, so i've made a new class from EditTextPreference with a show method, and it works like a charme.</p> <p>Here is some code:</p> <pre><code>public class MyEditTextPref extends EditTextPreference { //...constructor here.... public void show() { showDialog(null); } } </code></pre> <p></p> <p>In my settings.xml (wich i use to generate the ActivitySettings Layout) i've added myEditTextPref</p> <pre><code><package.that.contains.MyEditTextPreferences android:key="myPref" android:title="@string/pref_title" android:summary="@string/pref_summary" android:dialogTitle="@string/dialog_title" android:dialogMessage="@string/dialog_message" /> </code></pre> <p></p> <p>And the last thing i've done is the onSharedPreferenceChanged method in the PreferenceActivity</p> <pre><code>public void onSharedPreferenceChanged(SharedPreferences sharedPreferences, String key) { if (key.equalsIgnoreCase(MY_CHECK_BOX)) { MyEditTextPreferences myPref = (MyEditTextPreferences) findPreference("myPref"); myPref.show(); } } </code></pre> <p>ps.: actually i'm not using PreferenceFragment because i want pre-honeycomb compatibility but i don't think this code change much.</p>
