i got code else in so.
code:
inputfilter timefilter = new inputfilter() { public charsequence filter(charsequence source, int start, int end, spanned dest, int dstart, int dend) { if (source.length() == 0) { return null;// deleting, keep original editing } string result = ""; result += dest.tostring().substring(0, dstart); result += source.tostring().substring(start, end); result += dest.tostring().substring(dend, dest.length()); if (result.length() > 5) { return "";// not allow edit } boolean allowedit = true; char c; if (result.length() > 0) { c = result.charat(0); allowedit &= (c >= '0' && c <= '2'); } if (result.length() > 1) { c = result.charat(1); allowedit &= (c >= '0' && c <= '9'); } if (result.length() > 2) { c = result.charat(2); allowedit &= (c == ':'); } if (result.length() > 3) { c = result.charat(3); allowedit &= (c >= '0' && c <= '5'); } if (result.length() > 4) { c = result.charat(4); allowedit &= (c >= '0' && c <= '9'); } return allowedit ? null : ""; } }; edited question : main.xml file code

try casting chars ints, test if greater 24 , 60.
int = ((int) result.charat(0)) - 48; int b = ((int) result.charat(1)) - 48; int c = ((int) result.charat(3)) - 48; if(a < 0 || b < 0 || c < 0) { not right. } if((a > 2 || (a == 2 && b > 3)) || c > 59) { neither this. } minus 48 because numbers 0 48th in ascii table. the test has ascii.
