I am using android.intent.action.LOCALE_CHANGED to detect language changes and update my widgets. Is there something analogous for date and time format changes? I don't see anything, but I could be just blind.

Which one should I use java.util.Date or android.text.format.Time? It seems you can accomplish what one needs to do with either. What I need to do is at times get the current date and time and sometimes set a date and time specified by the user.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently received an LG optimus f3 with android 4.1.2.
After activating the phone, it displayed the correct date and time for my time zone, so I didn't mess around with settings to reset the time, as I would with any other device.
However, I've noticed that the time changes to exactly an hour ahead, before changing itself back several minutes later.
I went to settings > date and time, but 24 hour time and selecting a date format are the only options listed.

Also, is there a way to automatically update a 'modified' field when the data in the row is changed like you can in MySQL?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm making an app that needs to sort a Sqlite table of weeks by date and display just the date and the total hours worked that week in a listview.

if (mCursor != null)

When I enter new events in the PC-sync calendar on the phone, I can enter (or modify) the date. The dialogue box that appears when I do this shows the date in MM-DD-YYYY format. I've checked all the settings that I can find, and I'm sure they're all set to UK/British. Am I missing something, or is it not possible to change this?

The relevant code is:
CODE:........
For input I'm giving it a string
2010-09-06T15:30:00+02:00
And as a return I get a Date object with date set to 6th of January 2010 with time of 13:30 and timezone of GMT+00:00.
I also tried using "2010-09-06T15:30:00+0200" with same results.
Confusing thing is, that the date set is partially correct, just the month is set wrongly.
The issue is shown on Android 1.6 and Android 2.2.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI know I can use android.text.format.DateFormat.getDateFormat() to format my dates, and android.text.format.DateFormat.getTimeFormat to format my times, but how do I format a datetime? Similar to the getDateTimeInstance method from java.text.DateFormat.
