Why do you need a static TimerTask.You can give like this which works fine for me.

timer.schedule(new TimerTask() {
        @Override
        public void run() {
        //your code
        }
        }, 0, 30000);

While logout use, timer.cancel(). Here you can simply cancel the timer.No need to cancel the TimerTask.
