To access your resource you need to get a reference to the android.content.res.Resources object for your application.
To do this, you can call getResources() on any object extending android.content.ContextWrapper (Activity, Service, Context, or Application for instance). A context is necessary because you could have several version of your resources (based on phone configuration such as orientation, language, etc...). Resources.getSystem() does not work because it gives you the system resources, not your application resources.
