Android: How to maximize PreferenceFragment width (or get rid of margin)?

Just an addition to this; the accepted answer did not work for me because the ListView itself does not have any padding set, it is set on the parent view (usually a LinearLayout). So instead, the following was necessary:

ListView lv = (ListView) findViewById(android.R.id.list);
ViewGroup parent = (ViewGroup)lv.getParent();
parent.setPadding(0, 0, 0, 0);

Finally, I found the solution to this.

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
        Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    View v = super.onCreateView(inflater, container, savedInstanceState);
    if(v != null) {
        ListView lv = (ListView) v.findViewById(android.R.id.list);
        lv.setPadding(10, 10, 10, 10);
    }
    return v;
}

You can set padding by using: setPadding();
