3g Unrestrictor or Facebreak?

Both will let you use Facetime over 3G. From what I've read about Facebreak, that's all it will do. 3G Unrestrictor will trick almost any app to think it's on Wifi, when you're actually on 3G.
I can't vouch for 3g Unrest, but Facebreak has always worked like a charm for me.
FB works on 4.1

i have 3GU and it has always worked flawlessly.. one thing you might want to consider is that right now with ios 4.1 3GU does not work. my3g works and i am not to sure about facebreak. i would recommend getting 3GU, because like the above poster stated, it works for all apps. gl.

Unrestrictor has worked we for me on 4.1. I always turn it off with sbsettings whenever I'm not using it.

im sorry i totally misguided you... it does not work with receiving facetime calls.. you are right it works, but when getting FT calls it has not worked for me and others at all.

It wasn't 100% with version 2.3 but the current update, 2.3.1-1, has been submitted to fix the incoming 3G call failure. I haven't tested it out but I'd be willing to bet it works fine now.
I decided to try My3G a few days ago and I like it so I haven't bothered testing the most recent 3G Unrestrictor release.

thanks for that link, i saw it before and the latest release doesnt seem to be on there, but i think it does work.. i live in an edge only area, but i FTed myself from my mbp and this time my iphone got the call even though it cant connect due to connection speed. so i think all in all it does work 🙂

That's good to hear! I have paid licenses from all three packages mentioned here. I started off with 3G Unrestrictor but at the time the incoming 3G calls were failing. I waited a few days and then I tried Facebreak which is great but I wanted a single all-in-one app. So, having an impatient moment, I got My3G and have settled on that for now. At least I have options going forward. 🙂
this is funah

I've been using 3GUnrestrictor and since the last update, it's been working beautifully on 4.1 on all applications including facetime... i highly recommend it.
