All you need to do is this (all the code is part of an acticity or Service (i.e. Context):
Get a SharedPreferences object:

static final String PREFS_NAME = "MyPrefs";
static final String USER_KEY = "user";

SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME, 0);

To store a string:

String username = ...
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = settings.edit();
editor.putString(USER_KEY, username);
editor.commit();

To read:

String username = settings.getString(USER_KEY,null); // 2nd param is default value, used if prefs value is undefined
