Sounds like you want to use SimpleDateFormat so something like: 

Date today = Calendar.getInstance().getTime();
SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("hh.mm");
String folderName = formatter.format(today);

Based on your comment try:

int index = time.indexOf(‘:’);
int start = index -2;
int end = index + 2;
String newTime = time.substring(start,end);

You can try this 

Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
        SimpleDateFormat mdformat = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm:ss");
        String strDate = "Current Time : " + mdformat.format(calendar.getTime());
        display(strDate);

  • You just need to format it. [Here might have answers](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/454315/how-do-you-format-date-and-time-in-android) – Leon Zaii Oct 04 '18 at 04:05

You can use SimpleDateFormat to get time and then replace : by . I hope it can help your problem!

String apiDateString = "2018-11-30 12:00:00"; // in this case, your string from api
Date apiDate = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss").parse(apiDateString); // convert api date string to date
SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("hh.mm");
String yourDateString = formatter.format(apiDate);

I think you want this.

Edited with little comment.

  1. convert string to date. (apiDateString to apiDate)
  2. create new format for what you want to form. In this case, 12.00
  3. convert apiDate to your format. (apiDate -> 12.00)

You can refer to this post. Use SimpleDateFormat to format you date.

From String to Date

// Convert from string to date
String yourDate = "2018-11-30 12:00:00";  
SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
Date date = format.parse(yourDate);

//Use calender instead of date to getHours and minute, due to deprecated
Calendar calendar = GregorianCalendar.getInstance();
calendar.setTime(date);
calendar.get(Calendar.HOUR);
calendar.get(Calendar.MINUTE);

System.out.println(calendar.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY)+"."+calendar.get(Calendar.MINUTE)); //12.0
