Answer 1

I was facing a similar problem and this solved my issue. Important is to call setText(, ) in order not to filter with the given text set the second parameter with false. The text will be got from the dropdown adapter.

Solution snippet:

automCompleteTextView.setText(automCompleteTextView.getAdapter().getItem(position).toString(), false);
