title: Convert String to DateTime format of google APIs
body: <p>I have a String which I have retrieved from a editText which receives the date from a date picker fragment. Now i need to convert this to DateTime format which the Google Calendar API needs while creating events. I have not been able to do it. It might be very silly but i am stuck here for quite sometime now. </p>
  
  <pre><code>     String dateString = start_date.toString();
       SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy/mm/dd"); 
       DateTime sdate = dateFormat.parse(dateString);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When i try something like this i get cannot convert string to DateTime format error</p>
