Yes, you can hack one together. It's a distinct possibility that this code will have a short lifespan though due to changes in the API.

int foo = 7;
Object o = findViewById(ids[i]);
Class c = o.getClass();
Method m = c.getMethod("setCurrent", int.class);
m.invoke(o, foo);

String[] displayedValues = new String[] { "$00", "$01", "$02", "$03", "$04", 
                        "$05", "$06", "$07", "$08", "$09", "$10", "$11", 
                        "$12", "$13", "$14", "$15", "$16", "$17", "$18", "$19", "$20", "$21", 
                        "$22", "$23", "$24", "$25"};
Method m = c.getMethod("setRange", int.class, int.class, String[].class);
M.invoke(o, 0, 25, displayedValues);

And then drop a couple of these in your layout:

setCurrent set's the index of the picker which in the case of foo means a value of "$07". setRange sets the values to display in the picker.

Good luck.
