PreferenceActivity has missing icon on Honeycomb



I've created a simple PreferenceActivity containing a ListActivity. (code added at the end for completeness) but it shows up differently on a 2.3 device and on a Galaxy Tab 10.1" (Android 3.2) (see images below).





My questions are:





  • Can I also get the icon with the right arrow in Honeycomb?



  • Can I avoid the empty black line between the title of the activity and the ListPreference







Android 2.3 screenshot Android 3.2 screenshot







public class TestPreference extends PreferenceActivity

{

@Override

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)

{

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

setPreferenceScreen(createPreferenceHierarchy());

}



private PreferenceScreen createPreferenceHierarchy()

{

// Root

PreferenceScreen root = getPreferenceManager().createPreferenceScreen(this);

/*

* select language

*/

ListPreference listPref = new ListPreference(this);

listPref.setKey("Language");

listPref.setEntries(new String[]{"eng", "fra"});

listPref.setEntryValues(new String[]{"eng", "fra"});

listPref.setValue("eng");//TODO: assumes English is a supported language!?

listPref.setSummary("You can select your language here");

listPref.setTitle("Select Language");

root.addPreference(listPref);





return root;

}

}

Slow Android emulator

I have a 2.67 GHz Celeron processor, 1.21 GB of RAM on a x86 Windows XP Professional machine. My understanding is that the Android emulator should start fairly quickly on such a machine, but for me it does not. I have followed all instructions in setting up the IDE, SDKs, JDKs and such and have had some success in staring the emulator quickly but is very particulary. How can I, if possible, fix this problem?
