Answer 1

You can use the following code to select the data on your spinner.

 if(state != null) {
     for (int j = 0; j <= stateSpinner.getCount(); j++) {
         if (stateSpinner.getItemAtPosition(j).equals(state)) {
             stateSpinner.setSelection(j);
             break;
         }
     }
 }

Here, stateSpinner is the variable name for spinner and state is the fetched data from Firebase.
