Android : Time picker get Date in 24 hours Format

Question

I am using Time Picker Toolbar in my project and I'm facing this problem: getting the time in Am-Pm Format always returns me the hours in 12h format.

How i can get time in 24 hours Format?

This is the code I'm using:

TimePicker timePicker=(TimePicker)findViewById(R.id.timePicker);
int hours= timePicker.getCurrentHour();

e.g if i set time in time picker as 1:00 pm the current code will give me 1, but i want the output 13

By Using this trick we can get Hours in 24 Hours Format through Time picker:

Here is the Code

 @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_profile);
        TimePicker timePicker=(TimePicker)findViewById(R.id.timePicker);
        timePicker.setIs24HourView(true);//set Timer to 24 hours Format
        timePicker.setCurrentHour(Calendar.getInstance().get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY));
        int hours= timePicker.getCurrentHour();//get Time in 24 Hours using time Picker
