Eck, spoke too soon - for this to work, you need to have the display
values replicated somewhere in non-array form, not pretty.

how about:
SharedPreferences pref = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences
(this);
String value = pref.getString("key", "default value");
Resources r = getResources();
String localizedValue = r.getString(r.getIdentifier
(value,"string",null));
You may have to fiddle with the last 2 param
The PreferenceActivity is an almost empty class - it's the usage of
the preferences in the application that I was asking about.

Hmm, I was under the impression that this was being done from a
PreferenceActivity.

That only works from a PreferenceActivity. AFAIK, it does not help if you
are looking to get the display value anywhere else.

Does this not work for you?
listPreference.getEntry());

That's an idea, but it's messy. I can't believe that the best way to
solve this is to repeat that chunk of code everywhere you need it. I
could put it in some utility class, but I'm sure there must be a nice
neat way of doing it.

Um, probably with minor difficulty. The only way off the top of my head I
can think of t
Actually I just repeated what I was trying to do and realised I
phrased my question wrong. What I meant was how do I get the selected
(localised) value - the code I quoted gets the key as you'd expect.

Yes I know that. What I meant was that I can do this
SharedPreferences pref = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences
(this);
String value = pref.getString("key", "default value");
And it will return the selected value. But how do I get the selected
key?
