Saved SharedPreferences while Application is not using

I want to save a sharedpreference when the application received sms like 'ON'. But then, when the device receive the sms 'ON' while I'm not using it, I've got a dialog box caption application stopped. But when I remove the sharedprefences inside the method the toast message appear so it execute the method. I think there's a problem with sharedpreferences inside that method. Please help. Thanks.

here is some code from the activity

public class MainActivity extends Activity{ 
      static SharedPreferenceas sp; 

      public static void SPlron(Context context, Intent intent){ 
            Editor edit = sp.edit(); 
            edit.putString("a", "ON"); 
            edit.commit(); 
            Toast.makeText(context, "Saved!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show 
      } 
}

and i got this error in logcat

Tag: trace Text: error opening trace file: No such file or directory (2)

When your SPlron() method is called at that time might be SharedPreferences is not initialized. try the below code.

    public class MainActivity extends Activity {


        SharedPreferences preferences;
        SharedPreferences.Editor editor;

        public  void SPlron(Context context, Intent intent){
            preferences = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME, 0);
            editor = preferences.edit();
            editor.putString("a", "ON");
            editor.commit();
            Log.d("Saved!","Saved");
        }


        @Override
        protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
}
}

Let me know if more help required.
