Custom Count Up Timer

I need a count up timer in my application. I browsed many forums about this subject, but I could not find anything. Actually I understood we can do this with chronometer, but I have 2 problem with chronometer:
I cannot using chronometer in Service because chronometer needs a layout.
I cannot initialize chronometer to count more than 1 hour.
My code is here:
stopWatch = new Chronometer (MainActivity.this);
startTime = SystemClock.elapsedRealtime();
stopWatch.start();
stopWatch.setOnChronometerTickListener(new Chronometer.OnChronometerTickListener() {
#Override
public void onChronometerTick(Chronometer arg0) {
countUp = (SystemClock.elapsedRealtime() - arg0.getBase()) / 1000;
String asText = (countUp / 60) + ":" + (countUp % 60);
Log.i("t", asText);
}
});

You can use a countDownTimer in reverse and get the time elapsed.
long totalSeconds = 30;
long intervalSeconds = 1;
CountDownTimer timer = new CountDownTimer(totalSeconds * 1000, intervalSeconds * 1000) {
public void onTick(long millisUntilFinished) {
Log.d("seconds elapsed: " , (totalSeconds * 1000 - millisUntilFinished) / 1000);
}
public void onFinish() {
Log.d( "done!", "Time's up!");
}
};
To start the timer.
timer.start();
To stop the timer.
timer.cancel();

The sec,min and hr increments everytime the values hit 59,59,23 respectively. Each values are displayed in different views creating a digital stopwatch.
checkin.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
#Override
public void onClick(final View view) {
checkin.setEnabled(false);
new CountDownTimer(300000000, 1000){
public void onTick(long millisUntilFinished){
sec++;
if(sec==59) {
min++;
sec=0;
}
if(min==59){
min=0;
hr++;
}
if(hr==23){
hr=00;
}
secView.setText(String.valueOf(sec));
minView.setText(String.valueOf(min));
hrView.setText(String.valueOf(hr));
}
public void onFinish(){
Snackbar.make(view, "Finish", Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG)
.setAction("Action", null).show();
}
}.start();
}
});

Using RxJava, you can write
Disposable var = Observable
.interval(1, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
.subscribe(
time -> {
long minutes = time / 60;
long second = time % 60;
timer.setText("" + minutes + ":" + second);
});
you can stop the timer by using
var.dispose()

You can use this code to do so:
https://gist.github.com/MiguelLavigne/8809180c5b8fe2fc7403
/**
* Simple timer class which count up until stopped.
* Inspired by {#link android.os.CountDownTimer}
*/
public abstract class CountUpTimer {
private final long interval;
private long base;
public CountUpTimer(long interval) {
this.interval = interval;
}
public void start() {
base = SystemClock.elapsedRealtime();
handler.sendMessage(handler.obtainMessage(MSG));
}
public void stop() {
handler.removeMessages(MSG);
}
public void reset() {
synchronized (this) {
base = SystemClock.elapsedRealtime();
}
}
abstract public void onTick(long elapsedTime);
private static final int MSG = 1;
private Handler handler = new Handler() {
#Override
public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
synchronized (CountUpTimer.this) {
long elapsedTime = SystemClock.elapsedRealtime() - base;
onTick(elapsedTime);
sendMessageDelayed(obtainMessage(MSG), interval);
}
}
};
}

timer countdown 5,3,1 android

I have made a simple app about timer countdown. My code works perfectly, but the problem has come when I run this project.The first time my app counted normally, but the second time it counted 5,3,1 not 5,4,3,2,1
here's my code timer :
private Handler handler=new Handler();
public static int timer;
private OnTimeCompleteListener timeComplete=(OnTimeCompleteListener)this;
private Runnable timerThread=new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
if(timer>0){
//Time is running
timer--;
timer_text.setText("Time : "+timer);
handler.postDelayed(this, 1000);
}else{
timeComplete.onTimeFinish();
}
}
};
public void startTimer(){
handler.postDelayed(timerThread, 100);
}
public void stopTimer(){
handler.removeCallbacks(timerThread);
}
how to make my timer work perfectly?

I thought about something like this:
private static final int TIMER_COUNTDOWN_VALUE = 5;
private Handler handler=new Handler();
private Runnable currentTimerRunnable = null;
public void startTimer() {
if( currentTimerRunnable == null ) {
currentTimerRunnable = new TimerRunnable( TIMER_COUNTDOWN_VALUE );
handler.postDelayed(currentTimerRunnable, 100);
}
}
public void stopTimer() {
if( currentTimerRunnable != null ) {
handler.removeCallbacks(currentTimerRunnable);
currentTimerRunnabel = null;
}
}
private class TimerRunnable implements Runnable {
private int timerValue;
private TimerRunnable(int startValue) {
timerValue = startValue;
#Override
public void run() {
if( timerValue > 0) {
timer--;
timerListener.onTimerUpdate( timerValue );
handler.postDelayed(this, 1000);
} else {
timerListener.onTimerFinished();
}
}
}

try this,
create CounterClass and call its start and cancle method where you want.
public class CounterClass extends CountDownTimer
{
public CounterClass(long millisInFuture, long countDownInterval)
{
super(millisInFuture, countDownInterval);
}
#Override
public void onFinish()
{
//restart timer you wnat
//timer.start();
}
// #SuppressLint("NewApi");
#TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.GINGERBREAD)
#Override
public void onTick(long millisUntilFinished)
{
long millis = millisUntilFinished;
String hms = String.format(
"%02d:%02d:%02d",
TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toHours(millis),
TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toMinutes(millis)
- TimeUnit.HOURS.toMinutes(TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toHours(millis)),
TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toSeconds(millis)
- TimeUnit.MINUTES.toSeconds(TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toMinutes(millis)));
// System.out.println(hms);
tvTime.setText(hms);
}
}
create object of CounterClass and call it's method as discribe
timer = new CounterClass(26000, 1000);//for 26 second like,26,25....1,0.
timer.start()//where you need.
timer.cancle()//where you need.

how to get value from countdowntimer and display into toast

i have countdown timer from 1 to 9999 if i click start button the count will start, but if click stop button i need to get current value from countdown and display that value in toast but the countdown could not stop if i click stop button please help me
private CountDownTimer countDownTimer;
private boolean timerHasStarted = false;
private Button startB;
public TextView ;
private final long startTime = 9999 * 1;
private final long interval = 1 *1 ;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
startB = (Button) this.findViewById(R.id.button);
startB.setOnClickListener(this);
text = (TextView) this.findViewById(R.id.timer);
countDownTimer = new MyCountDownTimer(startTime, interval);
text.setText(text.getText() + String.valueOf(startTime / 1));
}
public void onClick(View v) {
if (!timerHasStarted) {
countDownTimer.start();
timerHasStarted = true;
startB.setText("STOP");
} else {
/*countDownTimer.cancel();
timerHasStarted = false;
startB.setText("RESTART");*/
}
}
public class MyCountDownTimer extends CountDownTimer {
public MyCountDownTimer(long startTime, long interval) {
super(startTime, interval);
}
#Override
public void onFinish() {
//text.setText("Time's up!");
countDownTimer.start();
}
#Override

thank you

Here is my countdown timer:
QuestionCountdownTimer
public class QuestionCountdownTimer extends CountDownTimer {
private TextView remainingTimeDisplay;
private Context context;
public QuestionCountdownTimer(Context context,long millisInFuture, long countDownInterval,TextView remainingTimeDisplay) {
super(millisInFuture, countDownInterval);
this.context = context;
this.remainingTimeDisplay = remainingTimeDisplay;
}
#Override
public void onTick(long millisUntilFinished) {
long millis = millisUntilFinished;
String hms = String.format("%02d:%02d",
TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toMinutes(millis) - TimeUnit.HOURS.toMinutes(TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toHours(millis)),
TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toSeconds(millis) - TimeUnit.MINUTES.toSeconds(TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toMinutes(millis)));
remainingTimeDisplay.setText(hms);
}
#Override
public void onFinish() {
Toast.makeText(context,"COUNTDOWN FINISH :)",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
Note:
TextView remainingTimeDisplay
remainingTimeDisplay.setText(hms);
I use it to display the remaining time using a TextView
Here I call the timer:
//Start Quiz timer
QuestionCountdownTimer timer = new QuestionCountdownTimer(this,10000, 1000, remainingTimeDisplay);
timer.start();
-first parameter: this - I use it for context to show Toast message
-second parameter: 10000 - total time (10 sec)
-third parameter: 1000 - countdown interval (1 sec)
-last parameter: dispaly remaining time in real time
Tested and working

Create your CountDownTimer like this:
public class MyCountDownTimer extends CountDownTimer
{
private long timePassed = 0;
public MyCountDownTimer(long startTime, long interval)
{
super(startTime, interval);
}
#Override
public void onFinish()
{
//text.setText("Time's up!");
countDownTimer.start();
}
#Override
public void onTick(long millisUntilFinished)
{
timePassed++;
text.setText("" + millisUntilFinished / 1);
}
public long getTimePassed()
{
return timePassed;
}
}
And on your onClick just do:
((MyCoundDownTimer) countDownTimer).getTimePassed();
to retrieve the time and set your textview text to it.

You should use handler
private Handler tickResponseHandler = new Handler() {
public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
int time = msg.what;
//make toast or do what you want
}
}
and pass it to MyCountDownTimer constructor
private Handler handler;
public MyCountDownTimer(long startTime, long interval, Handler handler) {
super(startTime, interval);
this.handler = handler;
}
And send message
#Override
public void onTick(long millisUntilFinished) {
text.setText("" + millisUntilFinished / 1);
Message msg = new Message();
msg.what = millisUntilFinished/1;
handler.sendMessage(msg);
}
That's all you need to do :)

Countdown timer with pause and resume

I want to do countdown timer with pause and restart.Now i am displaying countdown timer By implenting ontick() and onfinish().please help me out.HEre is th code for countdown timer
final CountDownTimer Counter1 = new CountDownTimer(timervalue1 , 1000)
{
public void onTick(long millisUntilFinished)
{
System.out.println("onTick method!"(String.valueOf(millisUntilFinished/1000)));long s1=millisUntilFinished;
}
public void onFinish()
{
System.out.println("Finished!");
}
}

in onTick method..save the milliseconds left
long s1=millisUntilFinished;
when you want to pause the timer use..
Counter.cancel();
when you want to resume create a new countdowntimer with left milliseconds..
timervalue=s1
counter= new Counter1();
counter.start();
See this link

I would add something to the onTick handler to save the progress of the timer in your class (number of milliseconds left).
In the onPause() method for the activity call cancel() on the timer.
In the onResume() method for the activity create a new timer with the saved number of milliseconds left.
Refer the below links

My first answer on stackOverFlow, hope it should help :) ...
This is how I solved the problem, control timer from Fragment, Bottomsheet, Service, Dialog as per your requirement, keep a static boolean variable to control.
declare in your Activity:
long presetTime, runningTime;
Handler mHandler =new Handler();
Runnable countDownRunnable;
Toast toastObj;
public static boolean shouldTimerRun = true;
TextView counterTv;
In onCreate:
presetTime =60000L;
runningTime= presetTime;
//setting up Timer
countDownRunnable=new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
if (shouldTimerRun) //if false, it runs but skips counting
{
counterTv.setText(simplifyTimeInMillis(runningTime));
if (runningTime==0) {
deployToast("Task Completed"); //show toast on task completion
}
runningTime -= 1000;
presetTime = runningTime; //to resume the timer from last position
}
mHandler.postDelayed(countDownRunnable,1000); //simulating on-tick
}
};
mHandler.post(countDownRunnable); // Start our CountdownTimer
Now, whenever you want to pause the timer change the value of shouldTimerRun false and to resume make it true.
#Override
public void onResume() {
super.onResume();
shouldTimerRun=true;
}
#Override
public void onPause() {
super.onPause();
shouldTimerRun=false;
deployToast("Timer is paused !!");
}
Helping methods: (can be skipped)
public static String simplifyTimeInMillis(long time) {
String result="";
long difference = time;
long secondsInMilli = 1000;
long minutesInMilli = secondsInMilli * 60;
long hoursInMilli = minutesInMilli * 60;
if (difference<1000){
return "0";
}
if (difference>=3600000) {
result = result + String.valueOf(difference / hoursInMilli) + "hr ";
difference = difference % hoursInMilli;
}
if (difference>=60000) {
result = result + String.valueOf(difference / minutesInMilli) + "m ";
difference = difference % minutesInMilli;
}
if (difference>=1000){
result = result + String.valueOf(difference / secondsInMilli) + "s";
}
return result;
}
public void deployToast(String msg){
if (toastObj!=null)
toastObj.cancel();
toastObj = Toast.makeText(mContext,msg,Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
toastObj.show();
}

I'm using two private vars in this case:
private long startPauseTime;
private long pauseTime = 0L;
public void pause() {
startPauseTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
}
public void resumen(){
pauseTime += System.currentTimeMillis() - startPauseTime;
}

I am afraid that it is not possible to pause or stop CountDownTimer and pausing or stopping in onTick has no effect whatsoever user TimerTask instead.
Set up the TimerTask
class UpdateTimeTask extends TimerTask {
public void run() {
long millis = System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime;
int seconds = (int) (millis / 1000);
int minutes = seconds / 60;
seconds = seconds % 60;
timeLabel.setText(String.format("%d:%02d", minutes, seconds));
}
}
if(startTime == 0L) {
startTime = evt.getWhen();
timer = new Timer();
timer.schedule(new UpdateTimeTask(), 100, 200);
}
You can add event listener's like this..
private Handler mHandler = new Handler();
...
OnClickListener mStartListener = new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
if (mStartTime == 0L) {
mStartTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
mHandler.removeCallbacks(mUpdateTimeTask);
mHandler.postDelayed(mUpdateTimeTask, 100);
}
}
};
OnClickListener mStopListener = new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
mHandler.removeCallbacks(mUpdateTimeTask);
}
};
For more refer to Android Documentation.

//This timer will show min:sec format and can be paused and resumed

//your code here
}
};

}
/*===========================================================
*after creating this you can pause this by typing ct.cancel()

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

CountDownTimer ctimer;
boolean runCountDown;
private long leftTime;
private static final long MILL_IN_FUTURE = 6000;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

}
}.start();
runCountDown = true;
} else {
ctimer.cancel();
textView.setText(textView.getText() + "\n Click to resume");
runCountDown = false;
}
}
}

A nice and simple way to create a Pause/Resume for your CountDownTimer is to create a separate method for your timer start, pause and resume as follows:
public void timerStart(long timeLengthMilli) {
timer = new CountDownTimer(timeLengthMilli, 1000) {
#Override
public void onTick(long milliTillFinish) {
milliLeft=milliTillFinish;
min = (milliTillFinish/(1000*60));
sec = ((milliTillFinish/1000)-min*60);
clock.setText(Long.toString(min)+":"+Long.toString(sec));
Log.i("Tick", "Tock");
}
The timerStart has a long parameter as it will be reused by the resume() method below. Remember to store your milliTillFinished (above as milliLeft) so that you may send it through in your resume() method. Pause and resume methods below respectively:
public void timerPause() {
timer.cancel();
}
private void timerResume() {
Log.i("min", Long.toString(min));
Log.i("Sec", Long.toString(sec));
timerStart(milliLeft);
}
Here is the code for the button FYI:
startPause.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
if(startPause.getText().equals("Start")){
Log.i("Started", startPause.getText().toString());
startPause.setText("Pause");
timerStart(15*1000);
} else if (startPause.getText().equals("Pause")){
Log.i("Paused", startPause.getText().toString());
startPause.setText("Resume");
timerPause();
} else if (startPause.getText().equals("Resume")){
startPause.setText("Pause");
timerResume();
}

Pause CountDownTimer in Android when activity is not in front

I have an activity that uses a CountDownTimer that counts down from 10. How do I pause that timer when the activity is no longer in focus, like if the user get a call or something, then resume the timer when the user goes back to the activity? Is this even possible?

I would add something to the onTick handler to save the progress of the timer in your class (number of milliseconds left).
In the onPause() method for the activity call cancel() on the timer.
In the onResume() method for the activity create a new timer with the saved number of milliseconds left.

You can use pause() to pause the timer and later on Start or Resume the countDownTimer by calling start().
/**
* This class uses the native CountDownTimer to
* create a timer which could be paused and then
* started again from the previous point. You can
* provide implementation for onTick() and onFinish()
* then use it in your projects.
*/
public abstract class CountDownTimerPausable {
long millisInFuture = 0;
long countDownInterval = 0;
long millisRemaining = 0;
CountDownTimer countDownTimer = null;
boolean isPaused = true;

} else{

}
}

No need to create a new Timer, just set the millisUntilFinished = total. For instance
private CountDownTimer cdTimer;
private long total = 30000;
...
toggleButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view){
if(toggleButton.isChecked()) {
startCountDownTimer();
}else{
cdTimer.cancel();
}
}
});
...
private void startCountDownTimer() {
cdTimer = new CountDownTimer(total, 1000) {
public void onTick(long millisUntilFinished) {
//update total with the remaining time left
total = millisUntilFinished;
nTimeLabel.setText("seconds remaining: " + millisUntilFinished/ 1000);
}
public void onFinish() {
nTimeLabel.setText("done!");
}
}.start();
}

You can try using Hourglass
Hourglass hourglass = new Hourglass(50000, 1000) {
#Override
public void onTimerTick(long timeRemaining) {
// Update UI
Toast.show(MainActivity.this, String.valueOf(timeRemaining), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
#Override
public void onTimerFinish() {
// Timer finished
Toast.show(MainActivity.this, "Timer finished", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
};
Use hourglass.startTimer(); to start the timer.
It has helper methods which allow to pause and resume the timer.
hourglass.pauseTimer();
AND
hourglass.resumeTimer();

Here is the code below .Use it in your activities it works fine.
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
TextView textview;
final static long INTERVAL = 1000;
final static long TIMEOUT = 11000;
static long millisecondsleft;
boolean isPause =false;
CountDownTimer countDownTimer;

For eg:
// Init timer
lateinit var timerExt: CountDownTimerExt
timerExt = object : CountDownTimerExt(TIMER_DURATION, TIMER_INTERVAL) {
override fun onTimerTick(millisUntilFinished: Long) {
Log.d("MainActivity", "onTimerTick $millisUntilFinished")
}
override fun onTimerFinish() {
Log.d("MainActivity", "onTimerFinish")
}
}
// Start/Resume timer
timerExt.start()
// Pause timer
timerExt.pause()
// Restart timer
timerExt.restart()
