public class MainActivity extends Activity {
 
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
 
        Button but2 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
        but2.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
 
            Intent in = new Intent("com.example.usingsubscreen.Pref");
 
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                startActivity(in);
            }
        });
    }
 
    @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
        return true;
    }
