setOnItemSelectedListener for spinner in Fragment

I have this error in setOnItemSelectedListener:

The method setOnItemSelectedListener(AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener) in the type AdapterView is not applicable for the arguments (FragmentMain)"

Fragment Class : 

public class FragmentMain extends Fragment  {

private Spinner countriesSpinner;
private Activity rootView;

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,Bundle savedInstanceState){
     View rootView =inflater.inflate(R.layout.activity_main, container, false);
     return rootView;
}
@Override
public void onStart() {
    super.onStart();

    addItemsOnSpinner();
}
public void addItemsOnSpinner() {

    countriesSpinner = (Spinner) rootView.findViewById(R.id.team_list_spinner);
    countriesSpinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new  CustomOnItemSelectedListener ()) ;

    ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapter = ArrayAdapter.createFromResource(getActivity(),
            R.array.team_list, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item);

    adapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
    countriesSpinner.setAdapter(adapter);

    countriesSpinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(this);

    }

public class CustomOnItemSelectedListener extends Activity implements
OnItemSelectedListener {

    @Override
    public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int pos,
            long id)  {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        if (parent.getItemAtPosition(pos).toString()
                .equals("San Antonio Spurs")) {
            Intent i = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), Spurs_games.class);
            startActivity(i);
            finish();}
        if (parent.getItemAtPosition(pos).toString()
                .equals("Los Angeles Lakers")) {
            Intent i = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), Lakers_games.class);
            startActivity(i);
            finish();}
    }

    @Override
    public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub

    }

}

public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int pos,
        long id) {
    if (parent.getItemAtPosition(pos).toString()
            .equals("San Antonio Spurs")) {
        Intent i = new Intent(getActivity(), Spurs_games.class);
        startActivity(i);
        finish();}
    if (parent.getItemAtPosition(pos).toString()
            .equals("Los Angeles Lakers")) {
        Intent i = new Intent(getActivity(), Lakers_games.class);
        startActivity(i);
        finish();}
}

private void finish() {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

}
public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

}
}

This is my 1st post here, so excuse/correct me PLEASE. Sorry for my English..

setOnItemSelectedListener

Must be implemented inside your FragmentMain not inside your Activity if you want to use the listener on the spinner inside the Fragment

inside your FragmentMain onCreateView

@Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                             Bundle savedInstanceState) {
...
}

put this code 

countriesSpinner = (Spinner) rootView.findViewById(R.id.team_list_spinner);
countriesSpinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener() {
            public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
                                       int position, long id) {
            }

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

            }
        });

The problem is this line here:

countriesSpinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(this);

because "this" refers to the Fragment in your case, but you should pass in an OnItemSelectedListener object.

Also there seems to be quite a confusion about how Listeners work. You probably wanted to implement OnItemSelectedListener in your Fragment instead of creating that CustomOnItemSelectedListener Activity. Or alternatively create an anonymous OnItemSelectedListener:

    countriesSpinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new OnItemSelectedListener() {

        @Override
        public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
                int position, long id) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub

        }

        @Override
        public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> parent) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub

        }
    });
