You need to create a class that extends Preference, then override onBindView and you'll have access to the view.

public class MyPreference extends Preference {

    ...

    @Override
    protected void onBindView(View view) {
        super.onBindView(view);
        View myView = (View) view.findViewById(R.id.my_id);
        // ... do stuff
    }

}

You'll probably have to override some more methods, read about custom preference in PreferenceActivity - http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/settings.html
