I restored my jailbroken iphone 4 from 4.0 to 4.0.1. Even after the restore facetime is not working.

Check that.

Also when you did a restore did you 'set up as new phone' or revert to 'backup'?

If from backup check the time, if the time was AFTER you did the jailbreak you would need to either set up as a new phone, or revert to earlier backup. (time before the JB)

There are also several other solutions, including manually fixing the permissions, or the update in Cydia. Google fu is weak atm

make sure you go into cydia and upgrade all

I did a revert to "backup". I guess the backup was after the jb. How do I select a different backup?

I am no longer jb, so cant access cydia

Go into iTunes. On the left side it should show your phone. Right click, restore to backup. There should be a drop-down menu where you can choose which backup to pick. Pay attention to the time of the backup. I had to go back a few weeks.

Correct me if I am wrong, backup has to be done manually and is different from sync.
