Was it preinstalled or did you download it? Do you have any hidden icons?

When you uninstalled and reinstalled it says "ok". Does it also give you the option to "run"? If so try running it as soon as you reinstall.

I'm not familiar with Ufone, but this information may also apply. BBMaps won't run on AT&T BlackBerries after OS4.3 without a workaround. AT&T prefers you to use their Nav app.

Here are links to possible solutions:
