Use the AndroidX Preference Library for consistent behavior across all devices. For more information on using the AndroidX Preference Library see Settings.

A Preference that allows the user to choose a ringtone from those on the device. The chosen ringtone's URI will be persisted as a string.

If the user chooses the "Default" item, the saved string will be one of System.DEFAULT_RINGTONE_URI, System.DEFAULT_NOTIFICATION_URI, or System.DEFAULT_ALARM_ALERT_URI. If the user chooses the "Silent" item, the saved string will be an empty string.

Protected methods

onAttachedToHierarchy

Added in API level 1

protected void onAttachedToHierarchy (PreferenceManager preferenceManager)

Called when this Preference has been attached to a Preference hierarchy. Make sure to call the super implementation.

Parameters
`preferenceManager`	`PreferenceManager`: The PreferenceManager of the hierarchy.

onClick

Added in API level 1

protected void onClick ()

Processes a click on the preference. This includes saving the value to the SharedPreferences. However, the overridden method should call callChangeListener(java.lang.Object) to make sure the client wants to update the preference's state with the new value.

onGetDefaultValue

Added in API level 1

protected Object onGetDefaultValue (TypedArray a, 
                int index)

Called when a Preference is being inflated and the default value attribute needs to be read. Since different Preference types have different value types, the subclass should get and return the default value which will be its value type.

For example, if the value type is String, the body of the method would proxy to TypedArray.getString(int).

Parameters
`a`	`TypedArray`: The set of attributes.
`index`	`int`: The index of the default value attribute.

Returns
`Object`	The default value of this preference type.

onPrepareRingtonePickerIntent

Added in API level 1

protected void onPrepareRingtonePickerIntent (Intent ringtonePickerIntent)

Prepares the intent to launch the ringtone picker. This can be modified to adjust the parameters of the ringtone picker.

Parameters
`ringtonePickerIntent`	`Intent`: The ringtone picker intent that can be modified by putting extras.

onRestoreRingtone

Added in API level 1

protected Uri onRestoreRingtone ()

Called when the chooser is about to be shown and the current ringtone should be marked. Can return null to not mark any ringtone.

By default, this restores the previous ringtone URI from the persistent storage.

Returns
`Uri`	The ringtone to be marked as the current ringtone.

onSaveRingtone

Added in API level 1

protected void onSaveRingtone (Uri ringtoneUri)

Called when a ringtone is chosen.

By default, this saves the ringtone URI to the persistent storage as a string.

Parameters
`ringtoneUri`	`Uri`: The chosen ringtone's `Uri`. Can be null.

onSetInitialValue

Added in API level 1

protected void onSetInitialValue (boolean restorePersistedValue, 
                Object defaultValueObj)

Implement this to set the initial value of the Preference.

If restorePersistedValue is true, you should restore the Preference value from the SharedPreferences. If restorePersistedValue is false, you should set the Preference value to defaultValue that is given (and possibly store to SharedPreferences if shouldPersist() is true).

In case of using PreferenceDataStore, the restorePersistedValue is always true. But the default value (if provided) is set.

This may not always be called. One example is if it should not persist but there is no default value given.

Parameters
`restorePersistedValue`	`boolean`: True to restore the persisted value; false to use the given `defaultValue`.
`defaultValueObj`	`Object`: The default value for this Preference. Only use this if `restorePersistedValue` is false.
