Location of network settings class in android jellybean

Question

I’m developing for android jelly bean and I would like to add a field to the network settings menu, but can’t seem to find it in the android source code…. I’ve looked in packages-apps-settings-src-android-settings but then didn’t know exactly where to look. Can anyone help me please?

Answer 1

You should first have a look at the packages/apps/Settings/res/xml/setting_headers.xml file which list the different categories used in the Settings app.

Then, you can implement a new category by looking how others are implemented - for example the "Data usage" setting is implemented in src/com/android/settings/DataUsageSummary.java (the fragment is referenced from the setting_headers.xml file).
