public void onTimeSet(TimePicker view, int hourOfDay, int minute) 
{
String am_pm = "";
Calendar datetime = Calendar.getInstance();
datetime.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, hourOfDay);
datetime.set(Calendar.MINUTE, minute);

if (datetime.get(Calendar.AM_PM) == Calendar.AM)
    am_pm = "AM";
else if (datetime.get(Calendar.AM_PM) == Calendar.PM)
    am_pm = "PM";
String strHrsToShow = (datetime.get(Calendar.HOUR) == 0) ?"12":datetime.get(Calendar.HOUR)+""; 

((Button)getActivity().findViewById(R.id.btnEventStartTime)).setText(
   strHrsToShow+":"+datetime.get(Calendar.MINUTE)+" "+am_pm );
 }

private void updateTime(int hours, int mins) {

        String timeSet = "";
        if (hours > 12) {
            timeSet = "PM";
            hours -= 12;
        } else if (hours == 0) {
            timeSet = "AM";
            hours += 12;
        } else if (hours == 12)
            timeSet = "PM";
        else
            timeSet = "AM";


        String minutes = "";
        if (mins < 10)
            minutes = "0" + mins;
        else
            minutes = String.valueOf(mins);

        // Append in a StringBuilder
         String aTime = new StringBuilder().append(hours).append(':')
                .append(minutes).append(" ").append(timeSet).toString();

          output.setText(aTime);
    }
