Android Spinner. White text on black background

Question

Help!!! Spinner 1: here is the xml of the Spinner I have, Its with white background and black text color for the items. I want it to have a Black Background with white text.

XML: <Spinner android:id="@+id/categorySpinner" android:layout_width="369dp" android:layout_height="41dp" android:layout_margin="12dp" android:spinnerMode="dropdown" android:entries="@array/category_items" android:paddingLeft="16dp" android:layout_weight="1" android:background="#FFFFFF" />

Java: ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> categoryAdapter = ArrayAdapter.createFromResource(this.getApplicationContext(), R.array.category_items, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item); categoryAdapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item); categorySpinner.setAdapter(categoryAdapter); categorySpinner.setSelection(0, false); // Set the hint item as selected

Note: The attribute android:textColor="#000000" is not working for this.

Spinner 2 For the 2nd Spinner below, I want it to have a rounded black color border . XML: <Spinner android:id="@+id/conditionSpinner" android:layout_width="369dp" android:layout_height="41dp" android:layout_margin="12dp" android:spinnerMode="dropdown" android:entries="@array/condition_items" android:paddingLeft="16dp" android:textColor="#FFFFFF" android:background="@drawable/spinner_border" />

Java: ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> conditionAdapter = ArrayAdapter.createFromResource(this, R.array.condition_items, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item); conditionAdapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item); conditionSpinner.setAdapter(conditionAdapter); conditionSpinner.setSelection(0, false); // Set the hint item as selected

For Spinner 1, I want it to have a Black Background with white text. For Spinner 2, I want it to have a black rounded border

categorySpinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener() {
            public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
                                       int position, long id) {

                ((TextView) view).setTextColor(Color.WHITE);
                ((TextView) view).setBackgroundColor(Color.BLACK);

                if (position == 0){
                    Luxury();//code for Luxury 
                }
                else if (position == 1){
                    Tech();//code for Tech
                }
                else if (position == 2){
                    Clothes();//code for Clothes
                }
                else if (position == 2){

                }
            }

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

            }
        });
        ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> categoryAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> (getActivity(), android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, category_items);
