how to change android spinner popupBackground

Question

I was trying to change the android spinner popup window background by setting the android:popupBackground, but it didn't have any effect. Is there any way I can change it?

    <Spinner
           android:id="@+id/eventNameSpinner"
           android:layout_width="160dp"
           android:layout_height="30dp"
           android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
           android:layout_centerVertical="true"
           android:layout_marginLeft="6dp"
           android:background="@drawable/btn_name"
           android:paddingBottom="2dp"
           android:paddingTop="2dp"
           android:popupBackground="@drawable/bkg">
