OnItemSelectedListener force closes app every time

I am testing out certain features I will implement into a working app, however this problem is driving me crazy:

I am using a stringn array in my strings.xml to write to the "dropdown spinner", and using a onItemSelectListener to display the entry selected, however the app force closes on the spin.setOnItemSelectedListener() method, I have absolutely no idea.

May I too add, that if there is a tutorial on this, I have probably done it and it has no solved the problem.

target api 22 ; min api : 15

xml file:

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">

<Spinner
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:id="@+id/spinner"
    android:spinnerMode="dropdown" />

This is the last changes to the code I have made, trying to get

.java file:

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.AdapterView;
import android.widget.AdapterView.OnItemClickListener;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.Spinner;
import android.widget.Toast;

public void initializeSpinner()
{
    Spinner spin = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spinner);
    ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapter = ArrayAdapter.createFromResource(this, R.array.temp_spinner, support_simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
    adapter.setDropDownViewResource(support_simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
    spin.setAdapter(adapter);
    spin.setOnItemSelectedListener(new AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener() {
        @Override
        public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
            Toast.makeText(parent.getContext(),
                    "OnItemSelectedListener : " + parent.getItemAtPosition(position).toString(),
                    Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }

        @Override
        public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> parent) {

        }
    });
}

I think your ArrayAdapter constructor is the problem, you are using layout.simple_spinner_item, I think it should be android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, try this:

ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapter = ArrayAdapter.createFromResource(this, R.array.temp_spinner, android.R.layout.support_simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
