autocompletetextview setonitemselectedlistener not working

Question

there i am trying to write code for authorisation activity. When i am putting some entry in inputEmail i expect that my inputPasword will be fileed automaticly if corresponding record exists. However onItemSelectedListener seemd not to work. When i select item nothing happens. Log does not fiers to. I'd like to know if i made some mistake or i am going in wrong aproach.

AutoCompleteTextView inputEmail; inputEmail = (AutoCompleteTextView) findViewById(R.id.loginEmail); inputEmail.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {              @Override             public void onClick(View v) {                 // TODO Auto-generated method stub                  Set<String> keys = prefs.getAll().keySet();                 emails.clear();                  if (keys.size() != 0) {                     emails.addAll(keys);                 } else                     emails.add("");                  inputEmail.setAdapter(adapter);                  email = inputEmail.getText().toString();              }          }); inputEmail.setOnItemSelectedListener(new OnItemSelectedListener() {              @Override             public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1,                     int arg2, long arg3) {                 // TODO Auto-generated method stub                 email = inputEmail.getText().toString();                 password = prefs.getString(email, "");                 Log.d(email + " "+password, "email+password");                 if (password.length() > 1) {                     inputPassword.setText(password);                 }              }              @Override             public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0) {                 // TODO Auto-generated method stub              }          });

This is a duplicate of this question

However, you need to use AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() not OnItemSelectedListener.

I tested it with success using the following code snippet. Credit to Vogella for the adapter stuff.

    AutoCompleteTextView actv = (AutoCompleteTextView) findViewById(R.id.autocomplete_textview);      String[] values = new String[] { "Android", "iPhone", "WindowsMobile",             "Blackberry", "WebOS", "Ubuntu", "Windows7", "Max OS X",             "Linux", "OS/2", "Ubuntu", "Windows7", "Max OS X", "Linux",             "OS/2", "Ubuntu", "Windows7", "Max OS X", "Linux", "OS/2",             "Android", "iPhone", "WindowsMobile" };      ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();     for (int i = 0; i < values.length; ++i) {         list.add(values[i]);     }     final ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,             android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, list);     actv.setAdapter(adapter);      actv.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {          @Override         public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,                 int position, long id) {             Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this,                     adapter.getItem(position).toString(),                     Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();         }     });

autoCompleteTextView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {         @Override         public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {             String selectedItem=autoCompleteTextView.getAdapter().getItem(position).toString();             Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),selectedItem ,  Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();         }     }); 

Just get the adapter of AutoCompleteTextView and use the position.
