Erel B4X founder Staff member Licensed User Longtime User Feb 6, 2017 #2 Your code will fail on devices with non-English locales. Add this code to Service_Create of the starter service: Code: Dim jo As JavaObject jo.InitializeStatic("java.util.Locale").RunMethod("setDefault", Array(jo.GetField("US"))) This will set the default locale to be US (of the process only) and the dates will be parsed correctly.
