You can't add your own application settings to the Default Android Settings application.

They should live inside your application. If you want the same look and feel as the default settings you should use a PreferenceActivity or PreferenceFragment for Honeycomb+

But i had explained in my question that i had already used PreferenceActivity in my app. – Amandeep singh Jul 26 '12 at 11:08

That doesn't change the fact you can't put your settings into the already existing settings application. – Dazzy_G Jul 26 '12 at 12:30
