How can create a custom PreferenceScreen design ?

i think this is what you are searching for.
PreferenceScreen screen = createPreferenceHierarchy();
..
this.setContentView(rootView);
=> i think you can set it from xml layout also.
setPreferenceScreen(screen);
Yes, it's doable. Apologies for the layout, my pasting never seems to keep the right formatting, but content works...
Preferences.java
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.preference.PreferenceActivity;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
public class Preferences extends PreferenceActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.preference_holder);
addPreferencesFromResource(R.layout.preferences);
Button backButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.backPrefBurron);
backButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
Intent myIntent = new Intent(getBaseContext(),
BTFirstTab.class);
startActivity(myIntent);
}
});
}
}
then a preferences holder.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<LinearLayout android:orientation="horizontal"
android:background="@color/bto_dark_green" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:gravity="center_vertical" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:paddingTop="4dip">
<Button android:id="@+id/backPrefBurron" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Home" />
<TextView android:id="@+id/backText" android:textSize="14dip"
android:paddingLeft="5dip" android:textColor="@color/white"
android:textStyle="bold" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_weight="1.0"
android:text="Preferences: Home will update all areas of the app" />
</LinearLayout>
<ListView android:id="@android:id/list" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" />
</LinearLayout>
then preferences.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<PreferenceScreen xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:background="@color/bto_light_green">
<EditTextPreference android:title="Your BTO UserName"
android:key="username" android:summary="Please provide your username"> </EditTextPreference>
<EditTextPreference android:title="Your BTO Password"
android:password="true" android:key="password" android:summary="Please provide your password (case sensitive)"></EditTextPreference>
<ListPreference android:title="Species order"
android:summary="This preference selects the species order for some viewing sightings activities"
android:key="speciesorder" android:defaultValue="date_order" android:entries="@array/listArray"
android:entryValues="@array/listValues"></ListPreference>
</PreferenceScreen>
This way I have a common header that I use in other pages.
