Setting up Java in Termux can be a bit tricky, but don’t worry! This guide will walk you through the installation process step by step, making it user-friendly and approachable for everyone.
What is Termux?
Termux is a powerful terminal emulator for Android that allows you to run a Linux environment on your device. With a wide array of packages and tools at your disposal, you can execute commands and develop applications right from your phone!
Why Install Java?
Java is a versatile programming language commonly used for various applications, from mobile apps to web development. By installing Java in Termux, you can run Java applications directly on your Android device and take your programming skills on the go!
Steps to Install Java
To install Java in Termux, follow these simple commands:
- Open the Termux app on your Android device.
- Type the command below to install wget, which allows you to download files from the internet:
pkg install wget
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MasterDevX/java/master/install_java
bash install_java
If you already have wget installed, you can skip the first command and directly download and install Java using:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MasterDevX/java/master/install_java && bash install_java
Alternatively, if the script is already downloaded, simply run:
bash install_java
Checking the Installation
To ensure that Java was installed correctly, run the following command:
java -version
If you encounter a “command not found” error, it means the installation was unsuccessful.
Troubleshooting
If you face any issues during the installation, consider the following troubleshooting ideas:
- Ensure that your device has a stable internet connection.
- Make sure that you typed the commands correctly, as even a small typo may lead to errors.
- If the script fails to download, it might be possible that the GitHub repository path has changed or the script has been updated. Check the repository for the latest version or updates.
- For additional support and collaboration on Java development, feel free to get in touch with the creator profiles like Hax4us and MasterDevX.

Uninstallation
If you ever find the need to uninstall Java, there is an uninstaller script available. Look for uninstall_java.sh
in the repository’s home. While I don’t have a specific command here yet, it should be as simple to execute as the installation process.
