#Now to make them like ics we need to add them in categories So Lets go #To add wifi and bluetooth shortcuts we need to add this code Code:
<PreferenceCategory android:title="Networks and Connectivity" />Note to remove this code Code:
<com.android.settings.IconPreferenceScreen android:title="@string/radio_controls_title" android:key="wireless_settings" settings:icon="@drawable/ic_settings_wireless">

So now we'll need to categorize other things Code:
<PreferenceCategory android:title="Text goes here" /> #So i guess you have understood it Your whole settings.xml should look like this Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>Save it. Done |
