    if you are extending list activity your list views id must be android.R.id.list – Athul Harikumar Sep 04 '12 at 13:34
  • it will be good to check out Preference Activity tutorial http://androidresearch.wordpress.com/2012/03/09/creating-a-preference-activity-in-android/ – rajpara Sep 04 '12 at 13:55

Please see

RuntimeException: Your content must have a ListView whose id attribute is 'android.R.id.list'

<ListView android:id="@android:id/list"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"/>

This will solve the error if you still want to use a ListActivity.
