You also need to override getDropDownView().

You may not want to do that. The stock simple_spinner_dropdown_item is a
CheckedTextView, which is what gives you the radio button on the right
to indicate the current selection. I don't know whether Spinner requires
a View that supports Checkable or not.

No, you also need to override getDropDownView().
