Here is an easy and smart solution for time format 00:00:00 in chronometer in android

Chronometer timeElapsed  = (Chronometer) findViewById(R.id.chronomete);
timeElapsed.setOnChronometerTickListener(new OnChronometerTickListener(){
        @Override
            public void onChronometerTick(Chronometer cArg) {
            long time = SystemClock.elapsedRealtime() - cArg.getBase();
            int h   = (int)(time /3600000);
            int m = (int)(time - h*3600000)/60000;
            int s= (int)(time - h*3600000- m*60000)/1000 ;
            String hh = h < 10 ? "0"+h: h+"";
            String mm = m < 10 ? "0"+m: m+"";
            String ss = s < 10 ? "0"+s: s+"";
            cArg.setText(hh+":"+mm+":"+ss);
        }
    });
    timeElapsed.setBase(SystemClock.elapsedRealtime());
    timeElapsed.start();
