Answer 1

Try with

SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssXXX");

Notice that

• MM represents months, while mm represents minutes.
• if you want to have 24h format use HH, hh is for 12h format
• XXX represents time zone in format like -08:00
• to add literal like T in format you need to surround it with single quotes ' like 'T'
