If you want them to be stored forever, until they're changed, it's SharedPreferences you're after.

SharedPreferences prefs = getSharedPreferences("myPreferenceDatabase", 0);
String mySetting = prefs.getString("savedPropertyName", "defaultValue");

For editing

Editor e = prefs.edit();
e.putString("savedPropertyName", "newValue");
e.commit();

If you just want the item to be stored until the application is closed, you should consider using a global static variable.
