Hide dropdown icon

 <Spinner
  android:layout_width="wrap_content"
  android:layout_height="wrap_content"
  android:background="@android:color/transparent"/>

or cover another view

<RelativeLayout
  android:layout_width="match_parent"
  android:layout_height="wrap_content">

  <Spinner
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:layout_centerVertical="true"/>

  <ImageView
      android:layout_width="30dp"
      android:layout_height="30dp"
      android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
      android:layout_centerVertical="true"
      android:background="#fff"/>
</RelativeLayout>

You can use your own style

 <style parent="@android:style/Widget.Spinner" name="mySpinnerStyle">
   <item name="android:background">@android:drawable/edit_text</item>
  </style>

And also try change your code from

style="?android:attr/spinnerItemStyle"

to:

style="@style/mySpinnerStyle"
