Okay, so I am developing a bus app that gives you the next bus on your station. On one activity I have all the buses and their times, and I just want to highlight the next bus, using the clock from the phone of the user? Is this possible?

take the time from the clock and then match it with all the bus timing using switch case and highlight the next bus timing. Use `Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance(); SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("dd:MMMM:yyyy HH:mm:ss a"); String strDate = sdf.format(c.getTime()); ` – knownUnknown Mar 23 '17 at 12:38

If you want the current time, you don't need the device clock, you can get through simple code. Just doing Calendar.getInstance() gives you a new calendar object for the current time that takes timezone into account. From this object you can get the day, hour, minutes...
This post explains in detail how to get/use the current time
