Cheer on your team and annoy the crap out of your friends with free vuvuzela app
* Update - FIXED. Got a new OTA link from the guys... should work better now for downloading! *
If you've been watching the World Cup, you most certainly noticed the vuvuzelas blowing away in the background. If you haven't been watching the World Cup, your ears thank you. The vuvuzela is basically just a long stadium horn used by fans to cheer on their respective teams. They blow the horns for the entire length of the match, and although annoying at first, you really do get used to hearing them after a while.
If you can't make it to South Africa to get in on the fun, you can bring the vuvuzela with you wherever you go with Vuvuzela for BlackBerry. The app is the epitome of simple - start/stop and volume. If you're at a sporting event (think kids baseball game) bust this app out and see how the crowd reacts. It gets super annoying after about 10 seconds, so use at your own risk. Download free OTA (OS 4.3+) from the link below.

Hahahaha perfect app for watching worldcup, the sound from soccer fan frenzy's volume is too low

I can't wait for those stupid things to get banned. Right now there's a huge push to get them banned.
r0cketman22 Jun 17, 2010 at 4:04 pm
It's a part of South African culture. If they wanted it European-style, they shouldn't have had the World Cup in Johannesburg.
With that said, I'm going to download this app and annoy a couple of my buddies. Hahaha

I don´t think so...
This type of plastic horn or trumpet has been used in Mexican stadiums since the 1970s. Originally made out of tin, the vuvuzela became popular in South Africa in the 1990s.

Everyone complains about these things, but yet everyone wants to download the app.

This is a bad idea. People will think you are a pain in the you know what if you use it. and it would be a waste of memory space for no other reason than to be annoying to all.

I downloaded the APP to my computer and can't install using DM. How do I install it in my BB Tour ???
jasonvw Jun 17, 2010 at 10:48 am
Copy it to the mem card or device storage, then go to file manager and run it there. See if that works. If it does, upload the jad somewhere so the rest of us can start annoying the hell out of people at work. :)
asianguy80 Jun 17, 2010 at 10:42 am
my gf is going to kill me. she already can't stand the sound when we're watching the games...lol who am I kidding this is great...if I could get the link working lol

robinsonsam89 Jun 17, 2010 at 10:58 am
I can get the JAD file from my PC and transfer to the device, but i cannot get the installer to download the app.
Can this be addded to the CB store or can someone host the .COD file if possible?
Huisman7 Jun 17, 2010 at 11:01 am
I have the same thing. Got in on my bb, opened it which asked for it to download, and then it fails.

Oh I soooooo need this. My daughter's U12 soccer team starts their playoff tournament tomorrow. This would be great. My wife doesn't think so, but I do..... LOL!!!!!!
If I can't get this to DL, I may have to go back to the free cowbell from Rogers. That worked on my Tour and was just as annoy......er.....fun!

i am using Google Chrome to d/l the COD files now.
the hosting site in the JAD file is extremly slow - 25 minutes for 1 file!!!!
once they are all collected, edit the JAD file to show just the file name and load it onto your device for local installation.

T-MobileCurve Jun 17, 2010 at 4:36 pm
I never could get the link to work, so I downloaded Rogers' free Soccer Fan Frenzy from App world. No continuous play, so you have to keep pushing the Vuvuzela button.
The FREE Soccer Fan Frenzy App is the ultimate soccer fan app.
Make noise, cheer on your team!
"Ole, Ole, Ole"
"Gooall!!"
"Boo!"
Vuvuzela
Crowd chants
Think the referee made a bad call? You be the ref! Show a red card or call an offside.
Get into the spirit and show off your favourite team's flag.
Iprojectit Jun 17, 2010 at 4:39 pm
Yeah, I went that route too but it isn't very loud and only goes for a second or two. Certainly an option though.

Oh yeah. This works just fine- a little too well. I just downloaded for our party tomorrow where we're going to watch Brazil vs. Ivory Coast.
So it's midnight and I download it on my 9650 and listen through my headphones, to not wake the wife and kids. The app fires up at volume 100 and scares the CRAP out of me. Sounds like a car horn going off in my ear. I can't wait to break it out tomorrow!

Firstly the vuvuzela is not part of our culture as stated above. It is a piece of plastic that soccer supporters blow it is hardly been around for more than 5 or so years in the spotlight.
Secondly the vuvuzela sound in this app is DEFINITELY not a vuvuzela - someone just band-wagoning. It's definitely FAKE
