Hi Salma,

In your MyCustomController class inside Quicksave method in the MyObject__c record assign like below .
 instanceof rec. RecordTypeId=MyObject__c.sObjectType.getDescribe().getRecordTypeInfosByName().get('YourRecordTypeName').getRecordTypeId();
Let me know any issue .

Thnaks

Thanks Manoj for answering, but it still doesn't work for me; 
i do not have a quicksave method here is my apexcode: 
public with sharing class MyCustomController {

    public MyCustomController(ApexPages.StandardController controller) {

    }

}

			<apex:commandButton value="save this" action="{!doSave}"/>
	   </apex:pageBlock>
	</apex:form>
</apex:page>
public with sharing class MyCustomController {
