I must say I was almost heart-broken when after looking for safe jail break (am a newbie) of my iPhone 4 iOS 4.2.1 … after researching for 2 weeks I finally did jail break tonight, thinking and fearing that my phone will become a brick. After doing that, though, to my dismay I checked the settings and found out that still there was no facetime option in settings (my phone is from Middle East). I was sad, suicidal, but I searched for the last time before going for duty (damn, I didnt sleep last night for this jailbreak!) and found your solution up there! THANKS A MILLION! Cant wait to facetime with my bro, and to jail break my wife’s phone too! Brilliant!
thanks alot well it got installed ….. now i gotta make de video call wish me luck
it got installed… thanks, but just want to test it some how with my friends..need to check who else has facetime
thanks dude it works me…now i can enjoy FACETIME!
I did the same and I got FaceTime. But it still doesn’t work as when I turn it on , it says waiting for activation . And then a message regarding paying some charge to get it activated. And I accept it , but still nothing happens and still waiting for activation.
