You can use SimpleDateFormat

The following pattern letters are defined (all other characters from 'A' to 'Z' and from 'a' to 'z' are reserved):

Letter  Date or Time Component  Presentation    Examples
G   Era designator  Text    AD
y   Year    Year    1996; 96
Y   Week year   Year    2009; 09
M   Month in year   Month   July; Jul; 07
w   Week in year    Number  27
W   Week in month   Number  2
D   Day in year Number  189
d   Day in month    Number  10
F   Day of week in month    Number  2
E   Day name in week    Text    Tuesday; Tue
u   Day number of week (1 = Monday, ..., 7 = Sunday)    Number  1
a   Am/pm marker    Text    PM
H   Hour in day (0-23)  Number  0
k   Hour in day (1-24)  Number  24
K   Hour in am/pm (0-11)    Number  0
h   Hour in am/pm (1-12)    Number  12
m   Minute in hour  Number  30
s   Second in minute    Number  55
S   Millisecond Number  978
z   Time zone   General time zone   Pacific Standard Time; PST; GMT-08:00
Z   Time zone   RFC 822 time zone   -0800
X   Time zone   ISO 8601 time zone  -08; -0800; -08:00

Try this..

String s1 = "2013-01-15 8:00:03";
    SimpleDateFormat sdf=new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd h:mm:ss");
    try {
        Date dt=sdf.parse(s1);//converting to date
         SimpleDateFormat sdf1=new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MMM-yyyy h:mm:ss");
         String s2=sdf1.format(dt);//formating to new format string
         System.out.println(s2);
    } catch (ParseException ex) {

    }

//new answer

public class Dd {

    public static void main(String args[]) throws ParseException {

        String s1 = "2014-01-15 00:003:00";
        SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss");
        try {
            Date date = sdf.parse(s1);
            SimpleDateFormat sdf1 = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MMM-yyyy hh:mm:ss");
            String s3 = sdf1.format(date);
            System.out.println(s3);

        } catch (ParseException e) {
            System.out.println(e);
        }

    }
}
