            @Override
            public void onTimeSet(TimePicker view, int hourOfDay, int minute) {
                int hour = hourOfDay % 12;
                if (hour == 0) hour = 12;
                String _AM_PM = (hourOfDay > 12) ? "PM" : "AM";
                etResTime.setText(String.format(Locale.getDefault(), "%02d:%02d %s", hour, minute, _AM_PM));
            }
