Setting Button for Live Wallpapers Doesn't work

Question

When I click Settings... in my live wallpaper I get

Unfortunately, Live Wallpaper Picker has stopped

This is my wallpaper XML

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<wallpaper xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:thumbnail="@drawable/fish1" 
android:description="@string/wallpaper_description" 
android:settingsActivity="com.example.fishwall.MainSettings"/>

And this this the Settings java file

public class MainSettings extends PreferenceActivity {
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.prefs);
    }
}

the xml file name is prefs? – Arsaceus Feb 04 '16 at 06:58 — Arsaceus, Feb 04 '16 at 06:58

you need to export your Settings activity. Without exporting it it is unavailable for the Wallpaper Selector. Something like this in the manifest:

    <activity
        android:name=".MainSettings"
        android:exported="true"/>
