Is there any way of setting the layoutResId of android.preference.Preference? I need to replace com.android.internal.R.layout.preference with something more than a ListView. (I want a PreferenceActivity in another view, and for it to inflate the hierarchy of preferences in that view instead of only showing the default ListView). Through PreferenceActivity I can get the PreferenceManager, but PreferenceManager.getPreferenceScreen is package-private. PreferenceScreen.setLayoutResId can change the ResId I want, but I can't get at it. If I could, would changing this work or would it break things?

You can call setContentView on a PreferenceActivity as long as there is a ListView somewhere in the layout with an ID of android.R.id.list (or @android:id/list from XML). This will be the target into which preferences are inflated. You are free to add whatever other views you'd like as long as this requirement is met.
