Sharedprefrences not saving?

When i try to save a variable to shared preferences then call it in an editext it is not being saved? I've been looking around for hours but i cannot find anything on it. I know that sharedPrefrences acts like a dictionary in a way but other than that i don't understand why this is not working :(
package com.example.gatorblocks;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.content.SharedPreferences;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.wearable.activity.WearableActivity;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class block1Settings extends WearableActivity{
private TextView mTextView;
Context context = this;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_block1_settings);
configureBackButton();
configureColor();
Button addTextButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.Apply);
TextView simpleEditText = findViewById(R.id.simpleEditText);
SharedPreferences prefs = getSharedPreferences("classes.txt", 0);
simpleEditText.setText(prefs.getString("classes1","1-1")); //set textbox to equal current class
final EditText vEditText = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.simpleEditText);
mTextView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.text);
// Enables Always-on
setAmbientEnabled();
addTextButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
String enteredText = vEditText.getText().toString(); //sets the array value of block to the editText
test(enteredText);
}
});
}
private void configureColor() {
Button Block1 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.colorButton);
Block1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
startActivity(new Intent(block1Settings.this, colorBlock1.class));
overridePendingTransition(R.anim.slide_in_right,R.anim.slide_out_left);
}
});
}
private void configureBackButton(){
Button backbutton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.backButton);
backbutton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
startActivity(new Intent(block1Settings.this, classes.class));
overridePendingTransition(R.anim.slide_in_left,R.anim.slide_out_right);
finish();
}
});
}
public void test(String enteredText){
SharedPreferences pref = getSharedPreferences("classes.txt", 0);
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = pref.edit();
editor.putString("class1", enteredText);
editor.apply();
}
}

How did you get data from SharedPreferences which is not saved? You saved data using key class1 and want to get it by classes1 which is not correct way. You have to use same key. Try using
SharedPreferences prefs = getSharedPreferences("classes.txt", 0);
simpleEditText.setText(prefs.getString("class1","1-1"));

SharedPreference is not working in checkbox

I want to fill the TextView of another activity based on preference on checkBox event but its working please help me to sort the issue..It is forcefully stopping.Please help in the if else statement part .what we need to write in activity 2 to select based on the checkBox in activity 1
Activity 1:
package com.example.rajatanurag.shoppingsites;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.content.SharedPreferences;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.CheckBox;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class Book extends AppCompatActivity {
Button b1,b2;
public static CheckBox cb1,cb2,cb3;
TextView tv1,tv2,tv3;
SharedPreferences sp1;
ImageView iv1,iv2,iv3;
String x,y,z;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_book);
b1=(Button)findViewById(R.id.b1);
b2=(Button)findViewById(R.id.b2);
cb1=(CheckBox)findViewById(R.id.cb1);
cb2=(CheckBox)findViewById(R.id.cb2);
cb3=(CheckBox)findViewById(R.id.cb3);

iv2=(ImageView)findViewById(R.id.iv2);
iv3=(ImageView)findViewById(R.id.iv3);
sp1=getSharedPreferences("SHOPPING",MODE_PRIVATE);
}
public void OnClick1(View view)
{
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = sp1.edit();
if(cb1.isChecked()==true) {
editor.putString("price1", tv1.getText().toString());
editor.putBoolean("x",true);
}
if(cb2.isChecked()==true)
{
editor.putString("price2",tv2.getText().toString());
editor.putBoolean("y",true);
}
if(cb3.isChecked()==true)
{
editor.putString("price3",tv3.getText().toString());
editor.putBoolean("z",true);
}
editor.commit();
Intent i=new Intent(this,MyCart.class);
startActivity(i);
}
}
2.Activity
package com.example.rajatanurag.shoppingsites;
import android.content.SharedPreferences;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class MyCart extends AppCompatActivity {
SharedPreferences sp1;
TextView tv4,tv5,tv6;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_my_cart);
tv4=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.tv4);
sp1=getSharedPreferences("SHOPPING",MODE_PRIVATE);
if(Book.cb1.isChecked()==true){
String price11 = sp1.getString("price1", "");
tv4.setText(price11);
}
if(Book.cb1.isChecked()==true){
String price21=sp1.getString("price2","");
tv5.setText(price21);
}
if(Book.cb1.isChecked()==true){
String price31=sp1.getString("price3","");
tv6.setText(price31);
}
}
}

You shouldn't be using static variables for view members because you might get memory leaks. Also the views you are referencing are destroyed when activity is destroyed, so they are not accessible in your second activity. You can send checkboxes checked values as intent extras.
Put this in your Activity 1 in OnClick1() method:
Intent i=new Intent(this,MyCart.class);
i.putExtra("cb1", cb1.isChecked());
i.putExtra("cb2", cb2.isChecked());
i.putExtra("cb3", cb3.isChecked());
startActivity(i);
This is how you get values in Activity 2 (in onCreate() method):
Intent intent = getIntent();
if(intent.getBooleanExtra("cb1", false)){
String price11 = sp1.getString("price1", "");
tv4.setText(price11);
}
if(intent.getBooleanExtra("cb2", false)){
String price21=sp1.getString("price2","");
tv5.setText(price21);
}
if(intent.getBooleanExtra("cb3", false)){
String price31=sp1.getString("price3","");
tv6.setText(price31);
}

public void OnClick1(View view)
{
if(view.getID() == R.id.cb1)
{
if(cb1.isChecked())
editor.putBoolean("x",true);
else
editor.putBoolean("x",false);
}
}
In your second activity
sp1=getSharedPreferences("SHOPPING",MODE_PRIVATE);
boolean isChecked = sp1.getBoolean("x", false);
if(isChecked){
String price11 = sp1.getString("price1", "");
tv4.setText(price11);
}

Android: Settings "onResume"?

I'm working on a Android App and the layout and all the "android" specific stuff made a friend of my. I only was responsible for the "app" itself.
Nevertheless,
I would like to change some settings, e.g. change the server the stats produced by the app, should be transfered.
Here is the Settings.java:
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.SharedPreferences;
import android.preference.PreferenceManager;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.CompoundButton;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.RadioButton;
import android.widget.RadioGroup;
import java.util.Calendar;
import java.util.GregorianCalendar;
import java.util.Date;
public class Settings extends Activity {
private Context mContext;
private SharedPreferences mPrefs;
private SharedPreferences.Editor mPrefEditor;
private EditText textName, textIP;
private RadioButton rdOnline, rdOffline;
private RadioGroup rdGroup;
private Button butSpeichern;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
mContext = this;
setContentView(R.layout.activity_settings);
mPrefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(mContext);
mPrefEditor = mPrefs.edit();
textName = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.txtBenutzer);
textIP = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.txtIP);
rdOffline = (RadioButton) findViewById(R.id.rdOffline);
rdOnline = (RadioButton) findViewById(R.id.rdOnline);
rdGroup = (RadioGroup) findViewById(R.id.radioDB);
butSpeichern = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnSpeichern);
butSpeichern.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
saveSettings();
}
});
//Online default an
rdOnline.setChecked(true);
rdOffline.setChecked(false);
loadSettings();
//ggf. Lan
System.out.println("online");
if(automatischLAN()){
setLan();
}
}
private void saveSettings()
{
mPrefEditor.putBoolean("onlineDB", rdOnline.isChecked());
mPrefEditor.putString("benutzer", textName.getText().toString());
mPrefEditor.putString("ip", textIP.getText().toString());
mPrefEditor.apply();
finish();
}
private void loadSettings() {
textName.setText(mPrefs.getString("benutzer", ""));
textIP.setText(mPrefs.getString("ip", "192.168.0.50"));
rdOnline.setChecked(mPrefs.getBoolean("onlineDB", true));
rdOffline.setChecked(!mPrefs.getBoolean("onlineDB", true));
}
public boolean automatischLAN(){
Calendar cal = new GregorianCalendar();
Date currenttimen = new Date();
cal.setTime(currenttimen);
int freitag = cal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);
int STUNDE = 0;
STUNDE = cal.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY);
System.out.println(STUNDE);
if(freitag == Calendar.FRIDAY && STUNDE>11 && STUNDE< 14 ) {
System.out.println("lan");
return false;
}
else {
System.out.println("online");
return true;
}
}
public void onBackPressed()
{
saveSettings();
super.onBackPressed();
}
public void setLan(){
rdOnline.setChecked(false);
rdOffline.setChecked(true);
System.out.println("sollte lan sein");
mPrefEditor.putBoolean("onlineDB", rdOnline.isChecked());
}
}
I'm afraid my setLan() method isn't working as the values are not stored in the prefs...
What is the easieast way to check prefs and chance them on each start of the app?
Thanks for your help

You have to commit the changes in the SharedPreference.Editor variable. Replace your function above with the given one
public void setLan(){
rdOnline.setChecked(false);
rdOffline.setChecked(true);
System.out.println("sollte lan sein");
mPrefEditor.putBoolean("onlineDB", rdOnline.isChecked());
mPrefEditor.apply();
}

Sensor Reading keeps increasing even after closing app, Android

I have make this app which calculates Linear Acceleration of device of all dimension, combines it, and calculates net acceleration. Top five acceleration values are stored in Shared Preference key-value pairs.
The problem is when I close the app and reopen it, I find the values increased to a much higher level. I don't seem to catch the point in the code from where it is happening.
Please Help me out.

How do you save the data of an int, and then edit the number onclick of a button?

I am trying to have it so when you click one of the answeers (Q1A1 or Q1A2) it will add a number of points to the testScore int so I can then later call that in a later class so the score they got would be posted there. Thanks to anyone who helps in advance!
here's my code,
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.content.SharedPreferences;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class Test extends Activity implements OnClickListener
{
TextView Q1A1;
TextView Q1A2;
TextView test;
public static final String PREFS_NAME = "MyPrefsFile";
public static final int testScore = 0;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.test);
Q1A1 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.Q1A1);
Q1A2 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.Q1A2);
Q1A1.setOnClickListener(this);
Q1A2.setOnClickListener(this);
test = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.test);
SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME, 0);
test.setText(settings.getString("YourScore", "No Score"));
}
public void onClick(View v)
{
switch(v.getId())
{
case R.id.Q1A1:
SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME, 0);
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = settings.edit();
editor.putInt("YourScore", (testScore + 10));
editor.commit();
//Intent FinalScore = new Intent(this, FinalScore.class);
//startActivity(FinalScore);
break;
case R.id.Q1A2:
break;
}
}
}
thanks for the help

You are are saving your score as an int but calling it as a string.
Change
test.setText(settings.getString("YourScore" , "No Score"));
To
test.setText(""+settings.getInt("YourScore" , 0));
