3G Unrestrictor wont even download for me...keep getting errors. Cydia in general isn't working properly. Just got a 504 Gateway time-out when I tried opening it. Thats about the 10th time that has happened.

I use My3G... I tried the "direct" flag method, but it just starts to connect and fails. I've heard 3G Unrestrictor works... don't really want to purchase another program that does the same thing if it's going to be fixed soon.

Okay this does work on 3G unrestrictor! I just understood what the op was trying to say. So do all of the above on the first post and make sure wifi is on but not connected to any "wifi networks".

I was turning off wifi to test and this caused it to not work.

Works now... I tried the SBSettings "turn off/turn on" step and now I can make FaceTime calls over 3G on 4.1

Yay! This works for me also. If I have wifi turned on but not connected, then facetime works over 3G with 3G Unrestrictor, and the quality is as good as it was with 4.01. Doesn't work for me if wifi is turned off.

facetime sms charge after 4.1 jailbreak

hi all, I'm new here and have been following the forums.
I have an AT&T IP4 running 4.1 with preserved baseband 01.59.00.

I have been using Facetime with no issues for the past 3 months over wifi (also jailbroken for the majority of the time until I upgraded to 4.1 recently). This past Sunday I jailbroke the phone with limera1n and installed 3g unrestrictor. Facetime call is working very well over 3g with "isDirect" option set to yes. However, since then AT&T is charging me an international text message for every single Facetime call I make, regardless whether i'm on wifi connection or 3g. The Facetime call i've been making is an international number, which has never incurred any sms/ connecting charges before the jailbreak.

anyone has this happening to them? Could you check your at&t usage and see if you are getting these sms charges.

thanks!

I noticed on the 4.1 update, you can now facetime using an email address. You might want to use that instead.
