IPhone :: Why Can't Use Facetime Without Wifi On The 4s
Apr 1, 2012
Why can't you use facetime without wi-fi on the iPhone 4s
I bought the iPhone 4s to use FaceTime to talk with my kids on there iPad when I'm outside away from home and when I went to facetime my son from my iPhone 4s to his iPad it said no facetime without wi-fi... Now I have the iPhone 4s with 4G and I can't FaceTime anyone while I'm on the road. I'm very disappointed with apple and now I'm thinking of getting a new phone service with someone other then apple...
I have my FaceTime set up on both devices, wifi on full bars, but it says FaceTime failed when I call. I also call from both devices at once and it makes no difference. I know the information is correct.
Last night around 10:00pm ET I was using my3G and facetime while i was out. This morning, Cydia had a couple updates, one of them being Mobile Substrate. After updating Cydia, I can no longer get Facetime to work. It attempts to connect, but then call failed.I tried on 3G and WiFi, with no luck. ANyone else having this issue? I tried rebooting, disable and re-enable facetime, and reset network settings. UPDATE: In the Phone settings, it now says "Facetime ON. Activation Unsuccessful. Turn on facetime and try again and it repeats with attempting to activate.
how I can get my iMessage and Facetime working again? I have an iPhone 4S with it on airplane mode and wireless on. It was working fine and then like magic, it says "waiting for activation". I am studying abroad in England and it goes in and out.
When I try to activate my FaceTime, I get an error msg that says, "An error occurred during activation. Try again." I have a good password (I used it to get here...); I'm on WiFi; I've toggled FT off and back on again but I cannot get past the error message and get activated.
any video calling include facetime from my iphone 4s drop wifi connection. It makes the router restart by itself. I have ip 4 before never have problem excep this ip4S. Is there a fix?
after watching the promo video I noticed that is stated both caller and receiver have to be on wi-fi to use Facetime. Ok doesn't that really avoid having the ability to chat via video anywhere as advertised. Now when I am on business trip I have to hunt around for wi-fi just to use FaceTime so what is the video chat really gaining me?
I was sitting here pondering, would it possible to when a jailbreak is avaliable for iOS4 , to turn on MyWi broadcasting, automatically connected you to your tethered internet connection and possible to use FaceTime when truely its just your 3G network broadcasted via WiFi
I was excited to see about people getting to use facetime, but 2 people aren't able to get there's until mid July and my brother isn't eligible. Anyone in the same situation?
Actually I just don't know anyone who is getting the ip4 this week and I'm dying to try it out. I will NOT stalk you or anything just wanna try the facetime. If you're interested. reply to this thread and either send me a private message or tell me to send you one. that way we can exchange numbers by text or email.
Wondering if there's been any talk of a hack via the Jailbreak that would allow FaceTime functionality via 3G reception? Figure it's just a matter of time to trick the phone into thinking it's on a wifi connection (if it hasn't already been done). Any thoughts?
Well if you live long distance from your significant other, there is another possible use for Facetime as long as you both have an i4.
I do not think I need to post the exact topic but funny someone I know doesn't see their partner because of traveling, and it occurred to me what a good feature can do for a relationship
So now that we have FaceTime back on our Jailbroken phones let's figure out a way to get FaceTime going over 3G. I tried 3G unrestrictor for the Phone application but that didn't do the trick.
I have jailbreak my iphone 4 and now currently, internet is working but I cant do the facetime and MMS?ANy one with a solution will be appreciated.This worked for me, I hope it does for others.OS4 missing cellular data network tab FIX*.

Hey guys I have a question. Me and my cousin both have iPhone 4s, both jailbroken and both have my3g. But everytime we use FaceTime with eachother the call only lasts exactly 1 min. It's very weird. Does anyone know the problem. And we have tried it many different. Times and at one point even in the same house and that lasted 58 seconds. It just says FaceTime call failed.
Too bad the jailbreak is gone for new iphone's used 3G unrestrictor on a 3G facetime call today. It worked as good as wifi. Well, plus I am still on the unlimited plan. so I suppose that people would not use it then. But, why do they limit such a great feature of the phone. Plus it needs to be opened to Skype, etc. then people would really use it.
I have an Iphone4s...and everytime I try to activate my FaceTime it says an error has occured try again, but it's all the time the same message, what do I need to do to get it working right?
But before I used iPhone 4 and same carrier and working my face time but now when I change my phone to 4s new I don't have face time in the setting but I have I massage ..
