setContentView(R.layout.main);

Button buttonSetPreference = (Button)findViewById(R.id.setpreference);
checkBoxStatus = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.checkboxstatus);
editTextStatus = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.edittextstatus);

buttonSetPreference.setOnClickListener(new Button.OnClickListener(){

@Override
public void onClick(View arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
startActivity(new Intent(AndroidPreference.this, SetPreference.class));
}});
}

@Override
protected void onResume() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onResume();
Toast.makeText(this, "onResume", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

SharedPreferences myPreference=PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this);
checkBoxStatus.setText("CheckBox Status: " + myPreference.getBoolean("checkboxvalue", true));
