[mr848]

Hi all

Facetime lost after jailbreak my iphone 4 to 4.1 firmware

Used the pwnage tool(previously firmware was 4.0.1)

Went to settings/phone and turn on facetime icon but it is stuck to "waiting for activation"...is that normal?

Can anyone help me please?

I had a similar problem. Go to Settings->General->Reset (at bottom of screen)->Reset Network Settings.

After performing reset you'll lose all your WiFi passwords so you'll have to reconnect to all your known networks.

I have exactly the same issue but searching on the net, I saw a thread saying you need to install "carrier reset fix" package from cydia and it worked for me. However, the issue right now is my facetime is stuck at "waiting for activation" in the last 3 days. I have tried many suggestions on the internet but none has worked so far....

any thought?

I got my facetime finally working after jailbreak and upgrade to 4.1. This is what I did (you will need the original ATT sim card). Jailbreak iphone 4 with pwnagetool 4.1.2, choose "expert" mode and uncheck "Activate the phone" option. After I successfully jailbreak my iphone 4. Connect your iphone 4 with the original ATT sim card inside the phone to your itunes. The phone will give some warning about "it takes few minutes to activate" or something like that. I then installed ultrasnOw to unlock my phone and I put in a China Mobile sim card. After a few minutes, my facetime activated automatically. I might have also opened up safari and put facetime://"myphonenumber" but I am not sure if that is necessary.

Hope this helps...
