Is there a way to install Java on iPod touch?

Answer 1

At the moment there is no official way to do this. The only way is to jailbreak your device.

1. Jailbreak your device. (This will void your warranty.)

2. In cydia, change your permissions to developer.

3. Go to the java tab in categories.

4. Download iedit, Classpath, jamvm, terminal, and jikes.

5. Go into the NOTES app on your iPod, turn it horizontally and type this:

public class test

{

public static void main(String[] args)

{

System.out.println("test");

}

}

6. Copy this by selecting all of the text.

7. Open up iedit and make a new file called test.java

8. Paste the code into the window and click save in the bottom left.

9. Launch terminal and type the following commands:

• cd Documents
• jikes test.java
• java test OR
• jamvm test

10. Voila!
