I know - only a few games left but I thought some people might still enjoy playing with my world cup app for the last few days of the tournament:
WorldCup2010Install.cab
Live scores and statistics during the games (& for all played matches), and a lot of other stuff too - player stats/photos, zooming in on stadiums, locations photos, previous winners... hope you like it! It works for both English & Spanish. It was previously a commercial Marketplace app - but now free for the last few days.
Cheers,
Ian
p.s. Who are you supporting now? I assume there's a fair few people like me who's country's team have gone out and now wondering who to support to win it!?
p.p.s. If you like my app please join my facebook group (search RedLemurApps on facebook) as it's brand new and looking a bit empty of fans
Wow - thanks for that. Nope - no idea who I'm supporting; it was England, then it was Brazil, then Ghana - now I'm stuck!
A little late...
But thanks for sharing

Hi Guys
Firstly as this is my first post I just wanted to say I have found this site to be a wealth of information and full of great team work and support all round. congrats. The XDA support people in Asia could learn a thing or two from you all.
Now for my question - Is it possible to play nokia java games on the O2 XDA? I thought a JVM would do the trick but I am not sure which one if any would do that job. I understand the O2 XDA II plays mobile phone java games - if so - what do they use and could we use the same method?
:?
Thanks heaps
Saman
The XDAII also doesn't have a JVM. One was promised by O2 at the device launch, but I seriously doubt if they'll ever get around to incorporating it.
There are many more important things that need sorting out anyway (a decent bluetooth stack, reliable alarms, SMS + sign bug, etc).
Java mobile games are generally pretty trivial, especially compared to some of the quality native PocketPC games.
If you're after a vast library of high quality games, I'd suggest trying out emulation - gnuboy and PocketNes work perfectly, and there are some genuinely fantastic games out there for these platforms. PocketScumm is also worth trying, you can buy the Lucasarts adventures quite cheaply nowadays: most of them are absoute classics.

Hey guys - Thanks for the replies
andyclap - I've actually got morph gear and that is cool but I cant get any sound on it
Rudegar - Can the personal java provided by SUN allow us to compile the nokia games to be played on the O2 XDA and how?
Thanks
Saman
The sun VM is trully dreadful, at least on WM2003 - it was designed for WCE2.11. If you really want a JVM, Jeode is probably the best supported, but it's expensive; and I'm not sure about its compatibility with Nokia games.
As for compiling Nokia games .. you have the source?
Just what exactly are you trying to do?
I was playing on my mates Samsung Camera phone and he was bosting about it, whipped out my XDA lol that shut him up, the other day I relised they were java games when i saw Sun Microtech logo pop up, PPC games owns anything java could do
Hi Guys
Andy Clap - I'm just trying to play ready for nokia java games. It sounds like there isn't a way to do it really.
It seems accurate though that there games are simple but they have so many nice looking free games at their disposal - unless anyone knows of any links i could check out for games
thanks
Saman
if i were in your shues i would try messing with a few of the java wm's i url'd to and see if it'll work
you could also try messing with getting them to run on a pc first just to see if it'll work on anything which is not nokia at all
Hey All
I'll give it a go if I can get anything working I'll let you know
Cheers
Saman
Hey Guys,
Found a great app for the 2010 World cup over at:
greendoorapps.com
Worth a look on all WVGA devices, diamond 2 or HD2
Gave my friends the fright of their lives
what makes it so great?
Sorry OP, passing an annoying vuvuzela soundmaker app for a WC2010 app is blasphemy!
I found one, but it's in some combination of Chinese and German... If anyone can figure out where the laguage files are it would be great!
As anoying as it might be to some...
You should be part of a group... or around at the moment in South Africa to know...
It is a LOT of fun!
World Cup is Going to Rock... can't wait to watch the first game!
They now posted a cool Anchor Man App...
funny

So, last year while Inter Milan was in the US, I went to see their all 3 games against Club America, Chelsea and AC Milan. All around me people with the annoying vuvuzelas, all blowing them, not to mention vendors selling them!
See, not having a soccer culture, or any culture at all for that matter, the US adopts whatever seems cool and interesting, prime examples of which are the famous drinking days of St Patty's, Cinco de Mayo (Cinco de Drinko) and Oktoberfest. And since there is absolutely NO soccer culture whatsoever, they'll adopt whatever too... and the stupid vuvuzelas are no exception. Sorry but their usefulness in a game is as necessary as a crotch protective cup is for Superman.
They dropped the price
Heya...
I see they dropped the price....
Worth the buy now...
Going to get myself a copy too
Recommended South Africa 2010 World Cup app
Searching at different places, I found a FREE South Africa 2010 World Cup application called, of course, "World Cup 2010".
In my opinion, this applications has all necessary features: nice and clean interface, fixtures and news and scores that can be updated.
According to the author, the application is free because is a "proof of concept", that uses Windows Phone 7 panoramic UI.
It has a minor problem, because left-right swift only works at the top of the application, but everything else is working perfectly on my HTC TD2.
World Cup 2010 can be found here: http://www.mobilepractices.com/2010/06/world-cup-2010-application-for-windows.html

Downloaded it and it was succesfull. Very nice application. I'm using a HTC Elfin so my layout is a little bit screwed ( small side at the border showing while it shouldn't ).
But a must for every WK lover.

Hi everyone,
Thought I would mention this awesome game, quite new on the Market.
Review here, and also some free licenses and beta testing invites for their next project up for grabs here.
liked and retweeted!
i just want to let you guy know that there is new android humble bundle, with awesome games http://www.humblebundle.com/ There is even a port of great RPG Avadon from iOS to android, it plays great
Jumped on this the moment I got the notice! Can't beat getting a great deal and helping out some charities.
Bought mine yesterday as well. Great stuff!
Games Working?
Have you guys had any luck getting Swords and Soldiers to work on your Primes? Mine just closes on the main menu, the Humble Bundle support site says that the Prime isn't supported.

i have it working first run it closed then after a reboot all went well
I bought it a few days ago for the official canabalt release, I had an unofficial release but wanted the actual android release. The cogs game was pretty neat too.
Only donated a few cents which went to the developers. Don't really believe in donating to charities because I don't trust they can spend my money helping people as efficiently as I can - to where I can see a visible impact.
I picked it up last night. all the games work well (including S&S ) and i cant complain about the deal. Its about time we saw Zen Bound on android.
I don't know if this will prove useful but Humble Bundle is offering 9 games if you pay over the average ($6.19 at the time of posting this) or just 4 games for whatever you want to pay.Games include:
Fieldrunners https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.subatomicstudios&hl=en
bit.trip beat http://www.aksysgames.com/bittripbeat/
spacechem http://www.spacechemthegame.com/about
uplink http://www.introversion.co.uk/uplink/
(pay over the average you get these too)
Spirits http://www.creativeapplications.net/games/spirits-ipad-iphone-games-preview/
World of Goo http://2dboy.com/games.php
Osmos http://www.hemispheregames.com/osmos/
Anamoly http://www.11bitstudios.com/games/7/anomaly-warzone-earth
Edge http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_aB_ZkonGw
The cool thing it it's all DRM free, if there's a PC counterpart of the game (like World of Goo) you get that too, free. If the game is on steam and you want a steam key, guess what you get that too.
I've played most of these, they're a lot of fun and for less than $10 (if you're being generous like I was) they're worth it.

Thanks for the heads up! They also appear to have a Humble Bundle app now!
