As you are only Dealing with

Time of the Day

Code :

String myVal = "080000000000";

String myHour = myVal.substring(0, 2);
String myMin = myVal.substring(2, 4);

TimeOfDay releaseTime = TimeOfDay(hour: int.parse(myHour), minute: int.parse(myMin));
print(releaseTime.format(context)); // 8:00 AM

Also for accepted string for 

DateTime parse (
String formattedString
)

you can check Examples of accepted strings: - https://api.dartlang.org/stable/2.2.0/dart-core/DateTime/parse.html

For 24-hours format - add:

MaterialApp(
      builder: (context, child) =>
          MediaQuery(data: MediaQuery.of(context).copyWith(alwaysUse24HourFormat: true), child: child),
