[android] How do you save/store objects in SharedPreferences on Android?

Try this best way :

PreferenceConnector.java

import android.content.Context;
import android.content.SharedPreferences;
import android.content.SharedPreferences.Editor;

public class PreferenceConnector {
    public static final String PREF_NAME = "ENUMERATOR_PREFERENCES";
    public static final String PREF_NAME_REMEMBER = "ENUMERATOR_REMEMBER";
    public static final int MODE = Context.MODE_PRIVATE;


    public static final String name = "name";


    public static void writeBoolean(Context context, String key, boolean value) {
        getEditor(context).putBoolean(key, value).commit();
    }

    public static boolean readBoolean(Context context, String key,
            boolean defValue) {
        return getPreferences(context).getBoolean(key, defValue);
    }

    public static void writeInteger(Context context, String key, int value) {
        getEditor(context).putInt(key, value).commit();

    }

    public static int readInteger(Context context, String key, int defValue) {
        return getPreferences(context).getInt(key, defValue);
    }

    public static void writeString(Context context, String key, String value) {
        getEditor(context).putString(key, value).commit();

    }

    public static String readString(Context context, String key, String defValue) {
        return getPreferences(context).getString(key, defValue);
    }

    public static void writeLong(Context context, String key, long value) {
        getEditor(context).putLong(key, value).commit();
    }

    public static long readLong(Context context, String key, long defValue) {
        return getPreferences(context).getLong(key, defValue);
    }

    public static SharedPreferences getPreferences(Context context) {
        return context.getSharedPreferences(PREF_NAME, MODE);
    }

    public static Editor getEditor(Context context) {
        return getPreferences(context).edit();
    }

}

Write the Value :

PreferenceConnector.writeString(this, PreferenceConnector.name,"Girish");

And Get value using :

String name= PreferenceConnector.readString(this, PreferenceConnector.name, "");
