I don't have a utility on my N900 to open these yet, so I downloaded it onto my PC. I run Fedora linux, which automatically fires up an archive manager when I dbl-click the file. There are free Windows utilities to handle these files too (try tucows.com).

When you expand (extract, inflate...whatever) this file, it will create a folder called "ejre1.6.0_10" and neatly store all the java software within.

All you need to do is use the "scp" command (Secure CoPy via SSH) with the "-r" option to recursively copy the folder and all its contents to your N900.

You'll need your N900s IP address - there's a very handy little widget for that (thanks to whoever made it!)

example:

scp -r ejre1.6.0_10 root@my.n900.ip.addr:/home/opt/java

(you'll need to create that java folder on your N900 first - go to xterm, use "sudo gainroot" and then type "mkdir /home/opt/java")

Once you get this far, we'll continue the lesson
Tip: To avoid using root, extract to /home/user instead of /home/opt .

Has anyone tried We Golf? It is only useful if it can access a GPS. I would like to run it on my N810, but might think about upgrading to the N900 if that would make a difference.

What is the "applet" support status ? I have made trials with Sun ARM JavaSE but no success, either with MicroB or Firefox.

I'm waiting for Symbian Java runtime sources publication to try to compile them on Linux if possible:

That would be great to run all JavaME applications available !

Very nice

Dumb question... how did you get past the initial "terms and conditions" screen? I can decline, but can't scroll down to accept.

EDIT - Nevermind, i got it. Sweet

How do you implemented the JSR-179 api? I have copy the lapi.jar in the microemulator/lib directory, but not working...

Would some experienced forum member be so kind as to check if this java test applet runs on the n900 (or n810). If it does, I would get a device and find the easiest way to get java running.
TIA

I think this thread is diluted with 3 separate issues, due to its ambiguous title:
  • Java Standard Edition (Java SE) on N900 -- easy, use Sun's JRE (limited trial) or OpenJDK's ARM build
  • Java Micro Edition (Java ME) -- workable, but some/most useful APIs/JSRs aren't supported
  • Java applet plugin for microb -- unworkable (?)

I recommend the thread be split, and this original thread be specialized to any of the three issues above by renaming the title.

It appears there is also another somewhat related thread - in the Software > Applications section entitled "Java on Nokia N900 Maemo 5 for example Opera Mini"
