try to use this, stores changed really hard from 4.2 to 6.2, maybe your load finish before the onload listener is setted.
combo.getStore().load(function(){
combo.setValue(id);
});
also comboboxes should be setted by valuefield, so read on your combo configs if that is setted properly. If you don't have to use valuefield you can use
combo.setRawValue(id);
More specified example
// The data store containing the list of states
var states = Ext.create('Ext.data.Store', {
fields: ['abbr', 'name'],
data : [
{"abbr":"AL", "name":"Alabama"},
{"abbr":"AK", "name":"Alaska"},
{"abbr":"AZ", "name":"Arizona"}
]
});
// Create the combo box, attached to the states data store
Ext.create('Ext.form.ComboBox', {
fieldLabel: 'Choose State',
store: states,
queryMode: 'local',
displayField: 'name',
valueField: 'abbr',
listeners:{
render: function(combo){
combo.setValue('AL');
}
},
renderTo: Ext.getBody()
});
