SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("dd MM yyyy hh:mm:ss a z")
String result = sdf.format(new Date(timestamp));

if timestamp is a String, you can obtain the long version by calling Long.parseLong(string)

Like this:

// creat date format
DateFormat dateFormat = DateFormat.getDateTimeInstance(
    DateFormat.LONG, DateFormat.LONG);
// set time zone
dateFormat.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("IST"));
// create and format date
String formattedDate = dateFormat.format(new Date(Long.valueOf("1304054138")));
// write out
System.out.println(formattedDate);
