Try spinner.performClick();. For me it is working.

The difference between when it works and when it doesn't is the UI thread. You can only call that method from the UI thread so the onResume would need to set a runonUI in order to invoke. – Tatarize Mar 06 '15 at 18:11
When using a dialog my spinner gets open behind the dialog using performClick(); Any solution for this? – Huzaifa Asif Dec 21 '20 at 07:20

Try This

Spinner spinner = new Spinner(this);
    ArrayAdapter<String> spinnerArrayAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, spinnerArray); //selected item will look like a spinner set from XML
    spinnerArrayAdapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
    spinner.setAdapter(spinnerArrayAdapter);
