    int hour12 = cal.get(Calendar.HOUR); // 0..11
    int minutes = cal.get(Calendar.MINUTE); // 0..59
    int seconds = cal.get(Calendar.SECOND); // 0..59
    boolean am = cal.get(Calendar.AM_PM) == Calendar.AM;

    // Get the current hour-of-day at GMT
    cal.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"));
    int hour24 = cal.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY); // 0..23

    // Get the current local hour-of-day
    cal.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getDefault());
