Please, check #13 and #38.

What is reset, you mean clean?

[khalid-mahmood]

mean empty the spinner with no items.
for that i use spinner.setText("");
spinner.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter(
this,
android.R.layout.simple_dropdown_item_1line,
new String[]{}));
is there any other best solution ?
i use spinner.setText(spinner.getAdapter().getItem(0).toString()); for pre select;

To clear the Spinner just clear the adapter.

Save a reference for yout adapater:

ArrayAdapter adapter;

public void onCreate(...) {
      ...
      String[] items = ....;
      adapter = new ArrayAdapter(this, android.R.layout.simple_dropdown_item_1line, items);
      spinner.setAdapter(adapter);
}

Then, when you want to clear:

adapter.clear(); // clear items
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged(); // update spinner view
