</PreferenceScreen>

then make a new line inside strings.xml

go to

res/values/strings.xml

<string name="superuser">[B]Superuser[/B]</string>

or u can change name Superuser to whatever you want

then make a new png with resolution 32x32px (this is for ldpi device) and move ur png to res/drawable-ldpi

info

intent android:targetPackage="com.koushikdutta.superuser" means package installer for superuser

cmiiw

u can change it if u want to apply this to other apps

and this

android:targetClass="com.koushikdutta.superuser.MainActivity" means activity class in android manifest

just search and add .MainActivity

or if you not found it u can search this inside manifest

ex:

android:name=".activity.MainActivity"

android:targetActivity="HomeActivity"> cmiiw bcoz i not familiar with this..u can google it

ok finish

recompile sign and test

May be work in ICS and up ..i haven't tested on ics jb KK
