Hide item in Action Bar Sherlock

I want to hide an item in Action Bar Sherlock. I try it:

public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(com.actionbarsherlock.view.MenuItem item) {
    switch (item.getItemId()) {    
        case 2131165381:
           item.setVisible(false);
           supportInvalidateOptionsMenu();
           CopyOfAsyncLoadTasks.run(this);
           item.setVisible(true);
        break;

What I am doing wrong?

I suggest you to use rather resource id of <item> instead of your "ambicious" number. 

switch (item.getItemId()) {    
   case R.id.myItem:
     menu.findItem(R.id.myItem).setVisible(false);
   break;
   ...
}

From first look at your code i don't know exactly what number 2131165381 is? If you'll work in team it'll be not very human-readable especially for another person.

Note: To get more control over menu i recommend you to create second menu variable e.q:

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    this.menu = menu;
    ...
}
