Timestamp to string date

Question

I don't know how to transform timestamp to date. I have:

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {     super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);     setContentView(R.layout.main);     TextView czas = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView1);     String S = "1350574775";     czas.setText(getDate(S));         }    private String getDate(String timeStampStr){    try{        DateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");        Date netDate = (new Date(Long.parseLong(timeStampStr)));        return sdf.format(netDate);    } catch (Exception ignored) {     return "xx";    } }  

And answer is: 01/16/1970, but it is wrong.

Answer 1

try this if you're sticking with "1350574775" format which is in seconds:

private void onCreate(Bundle bundle){     ....     String S = "1350574775";      //convert unix epoch timestamp (seconds) to milliseconds     long timestamp = Long.parseLong(s) * 1000L;      czas.setText(getDate(timestamp ));   }    private String getDate(long timeStamp){      try{         SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");         Date netDate = (new Date(timeStamp));         return sdf.format(netDate);     }     catch(Exception ex){         return "xx";     } }
