 }

 public void onFinish() {
     mTextField.setText("done!");
 }
 }.start();

 banana.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener()
    {
       @Override
       public void onClick(View v)
        {
            CountDownTimer.cancel();

You can create a variable 'total' for total time and just set: total = millisUntilFinished in the onTick method. Check this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/6469166/2126403
