General :: Convert Timezone To Text?
Apr 8, 2012
I am trying to convert the results of timezone to text for use in textView. I am new ro android devloping,
Here is my current code:
Code:
TimeZone tz = TimeZone.getDefault();
TextView tv = new TextView(this);
tv.setText(tz);
but it gives me this error:
Code:
The method setText(CharSequence) in the type TextView is not applicable for the arguments (TimeZone). I understand the error, but I do not know how to convert the Timezone to "Eastern Standard Time" or "Pacific Standard Time" or whatever the case may be.

I'm testing a hybrid phone/scanner that came from China and I noticed the time was wrong on it (we don't use the phone part), so I went into time settings and it was set to automatic date & time and timezone, but when I turned off automatic timezone it said it was still China even though I've been using the device for a week. When I look up our IP on the web it says it's in the US in the correct state so I don't understand why Android is not locating the phone by IP.
I've noticed on other Android phones the time randomly goes incorrect when off cell service (like on my old Droid 2 or Galaxy Tab which I keep the cell service off for), so this appears to be a bug in Android. Is there a way I can smack the phone so it does it automatically or do I always have to expect Google not to do this right and make me have to manually set the timezone (and sometimes the time)?

I have been using a few Task/To Do list apps most of which export in XML format. My question: NOW WHAT?? I was clueless about the use of XML except its use with databases and did a little research on the web but can't seem to figure out how to use it or convert it into a useful form for me. I really like the apps I am currently using and was HOPING to be able to simply export my task/to do lists in simple text but that isn't an option; only XML. Is there a way to take the XML file and convert it to text?? I just don't quite know what to do with the XML file...

If I have an EditText component on my screen that I have specified inputType="decimal" for (i.e. a numeric/decimal field), what is the best way to convert it to an decimal value in the application code?
Google recommends avoiding floats, and avoiding creating objects unnecessarily (and I assume any auto-unboxing code is bad too), so I take these as my constraints. I realize a small application probably doesn't need to worry too much, but I haven't been able to find a 'best-practice' solution to this.
The most common solution appears to be this:
double value = Double.parseDouble(txtInput);

I meet a strange timezone issue when I debug my application on Android_2.1 SDK. I first start the emulator and set timezone to "Alaska" in Settings. I also search the internet and find Alaska is in GMT-9:00. If DST applied, it should be GMT-8:00. Then write some sample code like: TimeZone.getDefault().getOffset(0); // returns 36000000 (= 10 * 60 * 60 * 1000) TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT-9:00").getOffset(0); // returns 32400000 (= 9 * 60 * 60 * 1000)
How does this happen? Why this same API getOffset with same parameter returns different value? You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

I am trying to get phone's correct timezone. I tried String newTzID = Calendar.getInstance().getTimeZone().getID(); This is returning "America/Atikokan". But my phone's timezone is EST. Both of these have an offset of GMT -5 hours. But I actually need to differentiate between EST and "America/Atikokan", since "America/ Atikokan" doesn't have day light savings time. Is there a way to get the correct id?

to dear all Android developers, I need to know the UTC bias of my phone to correct the UTC time information I got from a site. I have read earlier posts and already found the solution to get TimeZone information from the "System.currentTimeMillis();" method. However, I need to translate the TimeZone (as like, "Asia/Taipei") to the UTC bias that it has to be (as like, "UTC+8" or other formats). Does anyone know the actual API solution? I have surveyed android.util.TimeUtils and found nothing to do this. The worst solution may I have is to build a "TimeZone/UTC" database table to translate this..

I've written an Android app that needs the short timezone name in which the handset is currently located.I'm using the following code: String timeZone = Calendar.getInstance().getTimeZone().getDisplayName(false, TimeZone.SHORT);When running in Chicago, this returns "CST". In New York, "EST". In Strasbourg, France, it's returning "HNEC" (Heure Normale de l'Europe Centrale in French).
The timezone in this location is referred to by some as "Central European Time" (see Wikipedia's Time zones of Europe).I'm passing timeZone off to a third-party system which very much insists on getting "CET" (not "HNEC"). Is there an API call I can rely on to return the three-letter (and, I think, "more modern") short timezone name? As my code runs in more and more locations, I'm guessing this problem is going to occur elsewhere, too. I'm really hoping to avoid maintaining some sort of map of three-letter to four-letter short timezone names.

the different timezones you cannot always answer in 24 hours, but atm I am really asking myself in which timezone do you actually live? Is it in a parallel universe where the time lasts forever? That would definitively explain why you only post 1 answer in a week. OK answer might be the wrong word, you sum up the obvious. So Jeff plz tell me that I am right otherwise you should perhaps rethink if you are the right person for this job.

I have been lurking for a few months now but have finally registered as i have an issue i just cant figure out. Me and the wife both have a Desire. When the time is set to automatically update from the network it keeps changing to GMT -8 Las Vegas time. it even says Las Vegas in the current clock.(and i cant delete it We have never manually changed the clock to Vegas time. The freaky thing is that we used to live in Las Vegas, BUT we didn't get our Desire's until moving back to the UK. I have made sure all my router, modem and PC settings are all GMT UK Time. the only thing that i can think is it is Gmail doing it as we made our Gmail account whilst in Las Vegas. its very annoying as when it changes to Vegas time obviously all our alarms and calender entries go "pete tong".
Also if i set the clock to manual it loses time pretty quickly as i left the wifes on auto and mine manual and within a few days mine had dropped 2 or 3 mins. We have the same gmail account synced to both phones. we also use Launcher Pro I thnk that is all the info i have for now.

I have a big problem deodexing files in ICS. I have tried xUltimate 2.3.3 but it doesn't work and I get error messages. Then I have tried baksmali by calling
java -jar baksmali-1.3.2.jar -x -d ./origi_frame myapp.odex
It works without giving me any error messages but in the output directory are only *.smali-files (instead of dex-files). Before calling baksmali I have downloaded the framework-folder from the device and placed it under ./origi_frame.
How is it possible to convert an .odex file to a .dex file?
I am using a Nexus S, Android 4.0.4, rooted.
