NavigationView with DrawerLayout setCheckedItem not working

I want let NavigationView check one item when app startup. But i found NavigationView.setCheckedItem(R.id.xxx) not working. And i also tried navigationView.getMenu().findItem(R.id.xxx).setChecked(true), same result.

I've already set checkableBehavior to single.

<item android:title="@string/sliding_menu_group_places">
        <menu>
            <group android:checkableBehavior="single">
                <item
                    android:id="@+id/xxx"
                    android:icon="@drawable/xxx"
                    android:title="@string/xxx" />

                <item
                    android:id="@+id/xxx"
                    android:icon="@drawable/xxx"
                    android:title="@string/xxx" />

                ...
            </group>
        </menu>
    </item>

But there is one way worked:

drawerLayout.setDrawerListener(new DrawerLayout.DrawerListener() {
        @Override
        public void onDrawerSlide(View drawerView, float slideOffset) {
        }

        @Override
        public void onDrawerOpened(View drawerView) {
            navigationView.setChecked(R.id.xxx);
        }

        @Override
        public void onDrawerClosed(View drawerView) {
        }

        @Override
        public void onDrawerStateChanged(int newState) {
        }
    });

The navigation item would be checked in onDrawerOpened callback. I've searched a lot in stackoverflow but none methods work for me. Who can help me about this.

Following code open first fragment of NavigationView and check it on NavigationView. For meaning of savedInstancesState == null condition: https://stackoverflow.com/a/26855936/4606368

    if (savedInstanceState == null) {
                Fragment fragment = new EventsUpcoming();
                getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.frame_container, fragment, "Upcoming").commit();
                navigationView.setCheckedItem(R.id.nav_eventupcoming);
                toolbar.setTitle(R.string.events_upcoming);
}

Add this code in OnCreate method of your activity.

use setChecked method of item instead of navigationView

navigationView.post(new Runnable() {
   @Override
   public void run() {
      navigationView.getMenu().getItem(0).setChecked(true);
   }
});

Menu items must be checkable.

<item android:title="@string/sliding_menu_group_places">
    <menu>
        <group> <!-- removed behavior -->
            <item
                android:id="@+id/xxx"
                android:icon="@drawable/xxx"
                android:title="@string/xxx"
                android:checkable="true" /> <!-- added 'checkable' -->

            <item
                android:id="@+id/xxx"
                android:icon="@drawable/xxx"
                android:title="@string/xxx"
                android:checkable="true" /> <!-- added 'checkable' -->

            ...
        </group>
    </menu>
</item>

Thanks to @darwin.

Reason: navigationView.setCheckedItem(R.id.xxx) not working because the NavigationView isn't ready for it.

Solution:

navigationView.post(new Runnable() {
        @Override
        public void run() {
            navigationView.setCheckedItem(id);
        }
    });

Try this way :

 menuItem.setCheckable(true);
                menuItem.setChecked(true);
                if (mPreviousMenuItem != null && mPreviousMenuItem != menuItem) {
                    mPreviousMenuItem.setChecked(false);
                }
                mPreviousMenuItem = menuItem;
