Android Shared Preferences Initialization

It is often nice to have some default values in Shared Preferences to begin with. Is there a good way to initialize them from an xml file or property file? Looking for the best way to do this. Thanks.

 @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        // Make sure default values are applied.  In a real app, you would
        // want this in a shared function that is used to retrieve the
        // SharedPreferences wherever they are needed.
        PreferenceManager.setDefaultValues(getActivity(),
                R.xml.advanced_preferences, false);

}
