HI Everyone
i want to create Camera Stamp, but i want the Date From time zone, not from devices.

thanks.

Use an ntp server to get the time zone you require

3

Why? Here is a map of the standard time zones

Be aware China is on a single time zone that spans 5 hours of actual time. How is that time zone information going to tell you the date? Other official times zones do not follow the meridians.

4

can i get json code? or file extention.?

5

I don't travel much.

If I cross into another time zone, will the clock on my phone change its time to match my new time zone?

6

i mean, i want permanent time zone in my app, example GMT+8, so If I go to a different time zone, like GMT+7 or GMT+6. it will remain at GMT+8

See the fourth link in the FAQ.

Perhaps you want to do something like:

How to add UTC to Android clock?

You may be able to Update Date and Time settings on your Android Device

  1. Launch Settings in your cell.
  2. Search for Date and Time.
  3. Disable Set time zone automatically.
  4. Choose Time Zone.
  5. Choose Select by UTC Offset.
  6. Choose GMT-04:00

might be what you want to do. You said earlier "i want to create Camera Stamp, but i want the Date From time zone, not from devices.
