Answer 1

Function for Spinner Item Selection

SpinnerName.setOnItemSelectedListener(new OnItemSelectedListener() {             
            @Override
            public void onItemSelected(AdapterView adapter, View v,int position, long id) {
                // On selecting a spinner item
                selected_item = adapter.getItemAtPosition(position).toString();
            }
            @Override
            public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView arg0) {
            }
});

Check condition for selected Item

if(selected_item.matches("")){
          //conditions accordingly  
return;
}
