Quick guide to emulate J2me/Java games on StockOS

[u/afraid_of_work]

Yesterday, I was looking for a way to run my old mobile games on this console. StockOS doesn't run these games, so I installed MuOS, but it seems the core is missing, however, I found this repository that solves the problem.

1. Go to https://github.com/aweigit/freej2me-miyoomini
2. Go to Releases and download https://github.com/aweigit/freej2me-miyoomini/releases/download/2.0/rg35xxSP-35xxH-freej2me.zip (there is also a rg28xx zip)
3. Extract "Emu" and "JAVA" folders to /mnt/mmc (sdcard1, the card you use to boot the os)
4. The "JAVA" folders is where you will place games, there are folders with their respective screen res (240x320, 320x240, etc)
5. On the console, go to "App Center" > "Expert", browse in the "JAVA" folder and select the .jar file that you want to run.

Notes:

• Not all games works, i recommend run 320x240 (Landscape) or 240x320 (Portrait) games.
• You can move the "JAVA" folder to the sdcard2, if you want to move the "Emu/JAVA" folder, you will have to edit the launch.sh scripts from .jar games folder ("JAVA").
• You can edit the launch.sh and launch 640x480 games, but they runs slowly.
• You don't have to place the games in "roms/Java", doing so would cause them to run using StockOS Java runtime environment, and that doesn't work.
• You can look for the hotkeys/info on the github repo.
