I already try both(in is the position of text)

spinner.setselection(in);

spinner.setselection(in,true);

but it always shows first object in the array that used by the spinner

thanks for help

Have you tried using the name of the item to get the position?

spinner.setSelection(((ArrayAdapter)spinner.getAdapter()).getPosition("Item Name"));

I fetch the item from database – Shellz Apr 19 '16 at 05:41
mcursor = sq.rawQuery("SELECT * FROM " + DatabaseHelper.TABLE_NAME + " where "+ DatabaseHelper.KEY_NAME + " =?",new String[]{grp}); if (mcursor.moveToFirst()) { do { in=(mcursor.getString(mcursor.getColumnIndex(DatabaseHelper.KEY_ID))); } while (mcursor.moveToNext()); – Shellz Apr 19 '16 at 05:41

Make sure your setSelection() is called after you done with spinner's setAdapter().
