Correct your format. m is used for Minute in hour whereas M is used as Month in year. — Arvind Kumar Avinash

Your dateobg returning from web service is : 11-19-2015.

You try to get the date from this string, you should in this case use the correct SimpleDateFormat.

SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("MM-dd-yyyy", Locale.getDefault());

Use SimpleDateFormat for that

public String getDateTime(){    
    SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd 00:00:00", Locale.ENGLISH);
    Date date = new Date();
    return format.format(date)+"" ; 
}

The question is asking about converting string to date, isn't it?
