Reseting a specific Sort Preference independant from the current App_ID

Question

Hi,
I want to reset a specific User Sort Preference. That is no problem, look in the report "current User Preferences" and reset the name with apex_util.remove_preference.
But I have 3 systems with different App_IDs Developing = 220, Test = 320 and Production = 420. So this specific sort preference has different names in different versions (FSP220_P20_R...., FSP320_P20_R...)
I dont want to reset all preferences for the user. Is there any solution...?
Thanks, Juergen

Hi Vijay!
Have a look at my post: http://ioi.solutions/easy-way-get-sharepoint-context/
It will save you a lot of your time.
SPLoader.js file has example of updating/deleting  items:
function updateCheckList(list,listItemId,fields) {
var deferred = $.Deferred();
SpLoader.ready(function () {
var listName = list;
var oList = SpLoader.hostWeb.get_lists().getByTitle(listName);
var oListItem = oList.getItemById(listItemId);
$.each(fields, function (index,item) {
oListItem.set_item(item.fname, item.value);
oListItem.update();
SpLoader.context.executeQueryAsync(
function () {
deferred.resolve("Operation successfully completed.");
function (sender, args) {
deferred.resolve('Request failed. ' + args.get_message() + '\n' + args.get_stackTrace());
return deferred.promise();
In the above example I am dynamically updating fields with new values.
fields= [{fname:'field1',value:1},{fname:'field2',value:0},....]
