Answer 1

You can use System.currentTimeMillis() it returns "the difference, measured in milliseconds, between the current time and midnight, January 1, 1970 UTC."

long time = System.currentTimeMillis();

Will do it :)

Answer 2

Use Calendar#getTimeInMillis:

Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"));
long time = cal.getTimeInMillis();
