users are having this same issue with 3GU, as it gives you a missed call but never rings. i did my own tests yesterday and if you download my3g it will delete 3GU for you and it will work. i am sure the devs for 3GU will come out with an update real soon.

You can make 3G Unrestrictor work with 4.1 (I'm working off an i4, GP'd w/ iOS 4.1)...
1 Go into the 3G Unrestrictor settings and add "MobilePhone (FaceTime)" as an unrestricted app
2 Click the blue arrow to edit settings and TURN ON "Enable IsDirect Flag"
3 Leave WiFi on, it doesn't have to connect to a network, just needs to be on.

This is a workaround that has been posted until the 3G Unr. dev can update the app to work with 4.1, this works for now but can be a pain (especially in college campuses and other areas with widespread wifi blanketing [that doesn't have enough of a signal to transmit on but the phone still autojoins the network])

3G Unrestrictor's newest version seems to have broken receiving calls over 3G. Someone has mentioned in another thread that the dev was aware of this on the 18th. I tried the my3g trial, and it works with that ok
