Android Chart with dates on x-axis

Here I'm trying to show a chart with dates on x-axis where the values are retrieved from web-server:

// Our first data

Date[] x = dates_array; // x values!

double[] y =  readings_array; // y values!



                XYMultipleSeriesRenderer mRenderer = new XYMultipleSeriesRenderer(); // Holds a collection of XYSeriesRenderer and customizes the graph
                XYSeriesRenderer renderer = new XYSeriesRenderer(); // This will be used to customize line 1
                XYSeriesRenderer renderer2 = new XYSeriesRenderer(); // This will be used to customize line 2
                mRenderer.addSeriesRenderer(renderer);
                mRenderer.addSeriesRenderer(renderer2);
                TimeSeries series = new TimeSeries("peak flow"); 
                for( int i = 0; i < x.length; i++)
                {
                    series.add(x[i], y[i]);
                }

                // Our second data
            int[] x2 = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 }; // x values!




                int[] y2 =  { 145, 123, 111, 100, 89, 77, 57, 45, 34, 30}; // y values!
                TimeSeries series2 = new TimeSeries("Line2"); 
                for( int i = 0; i < x2.length; i++)
                {
                    series2.add(x2[i], y2[i]);

                }

                XYMultipleSeriesDataset dataset = new XYMultipleSeriesDataset();
                dataset.addSeries(series);
                dataset.addSeries(series2);



                // Customization time for line 1!
                renderer.setColor(Color.WHITE);
                renderer.setPointStyle(PointStyle.SQUARE);
                renderer.setFillPoints(true);
                // Customization time for line 2!
                renderer2.setColor(Color.YELLOW);
                renderer2.setPointStyle(PointStyle.DIAMOND);
                renderer2.setFillPoints(true);



                Intent intent = ChartFactory.getTimeChartIntent(getApplicationContext(), dataset,
                     mRenderer, "DD MMM yyyy");
                startActivity(intent);
            }
        });

It works fine with the y-axis but on the x-axis the values shown are random values not my values! Any help please?

In the TimeSeries you should use the add(Date x, double y) method, not the add(double x, double y) one.

If you want the X axis labels to be exactly the dates of your data then do this:

renderer.setXRoundedLabels(false);
