    Run project in emulator, then from Eclipse choose menu Windows-> open perspective ->DDMS.
    From tab device, choose emulator name, then go to file explorer,expand data->data->yourpackagename, you should see share reference xml file (only work on the emulator or a rooted device). Finally, export this file to windows.
    See http://developer.android.com/tools/debugging/ddms.html

    Update:
    Another way, you can listen shared preference change:

    SharedPreferences.OnSharedPreferenceChangeListener prefListener = 
new SharedPreferences.OnSharedPreferenceChangeListener() {
  public void onSharedPreferenceChanged(SharedPreferences prefs,String key) {
if (key.equals("YourKey")) 
     {
          //Get this
     } 
 }

SharedPreferences preferences = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(context);          
preferences.registerOnSharedPreferenceChangeListener(prefListener);

    See SharedPreferences.onSharedPreferenceChangeListener not being called consistently
