        @TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.M)
        @Override
        public void onClick (View v) {
            cDay = dateSet.getDayOfMonth ();
            cMonth = dateSet.getMonth ();
            cYear = dateSet.getYear ();
            tHours = timeSet.getCurrentHour ();

            SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("EEE, dd MMM yyyy");
            String formatedDate = sdf.format(cal.getTime ());
            txtDateSet.setText (""+formatedDate);

            SimpleDateFormat stf = new SimpleDateFormat ("hh:mm aa");
            String formatedTime = stf.format (cal.getTime ());
            txtTimeSet.setText (""+formatedTime);

            alertDialog.dismiss ();

you can Try follow code for getting miliseconds from Date.

  SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss", Locale.US);
            format.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("UTC"));
            Date date = format.parse(text);
            long millis = date.getTime();

and we also having one Standard Library Called JodaTime Which is Provide Lot's off functinality related with date time.using this library you can easily get Miliseconds from DateTime. I am Also Having one Code Snippet Which is just return Miliseconds from DateTime.

    DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormat.forPattern("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss")
                    .withLocale(Locale.US)
                    .withZoneUTC();


            DateTime datetime = formatter.parseDateTime(text);
            long millis = dateTime.getMillis();

            //Or
            //long millis = formatter.parseMillis(text);

I hope you are Clear with My Idea.

Best of Luck

Do it like this,

  public String getDay(String str){
    if(str.equalsIgnoreCase("mon")
    return "Monday";
    ....
    }

as per your code

String mDate = dayFormat.format (cDay);
            StringBuilder dateBuilder = new StringBuilder ()
                    .append (getDay(mDate)).append (",")
                    .append (mMonth).append (" ")
                    .append (cDay).append (",")
                    .append (cYear);

OR

SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("EEEE, MMM dd, YYYY");
