Call requires API level 16 (current min is 4): android
Change The SDK version in AndroidManifest.xml to higher

<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="4" />
// 
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="8" />

Call requires permission which may be rejected by user: code should explicitly check to see if permission is available (with `checkPermission`) or explicitly handle a potential `SecurityException`

try {
// your code for example: 
//  LocationManager locationManager = (LocationManager) getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);         
//  Criteria criteria = new Criteria();
//        provider = locationManager.getBestProvider(criteria, false);
//  locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(provider, 400, 1, this);
        } catch (SecurityException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

Spinner in Android application is equivalent of ComboBox in WinApi.
Spinner get selected item to string example.
Spinner get selected item position to int example.

Main activity class MainComboBox.java

public class MainComboBox extends Activity {
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        Spinner spinner = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spinner);
        ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapter = ArrayAdapter.createFromResource(
                this, R.array.countries_array, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item);
        adapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
        spinner.setAdapter(adapter);
        spinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new MyOnItemSelectedListener());

        Button myButton =(Button)findViewById(R.id.button1);
        myButton.setOnClickListener(new Button.OnClickListener() {
            public void onClick(View v) {
            	
            Spinner sp =	(Spinner)findViewById(R.id.spinner);
            String spinnerString = null;
            spinnerString = sp.getSelectedItem().toString();
            int nPos = sp.getSelectedItemPosition();
            
             
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "getSelectedItem=" + spinnerString,
                    Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
