This is exactly what I meant EddieEC ... Anyway, I'll install firmware 4.1 next week and let you know ...
EddieEC
I'm getting 4.1 next week as well.
mr-iphone
Dear EddieEC, did you try Facetime with firmware 4.1? It's not working for me yet ... Please let me know ...
EddieEC
Didn't work here as well. I thought they would implement it the same as in the iPod Touch 4. Facetime is activated when a request SMS is sent. Someone needs to make an app that takes advantage of Facetime and put it in the app store so people with the issues get it fixed.
mr-iphone
There's a free application on the App Store called "FaceNow"... It does initiate a FaceTime session ... Would you like to try it? ...
EddieEC
I can't at the moment, I'm leaving the country for 3 days.

Sorry for asking guys but how the heck did you manage to try FaceTime on 4.1?
JB for 4.1 is not out yet.

Why would you need a jailbreak to try FaceTime ??
EddieEC
It doesn't need jailbreaking.
akramk
Then i guess you guys have factory unlocked i4s?
& What happened, any luck?! Ive been trying everything!
EddieEC
Yes we do have factory unlocked iPhone 4s. Didn't try anything yet.

Dudes I've been killing alfa lately! Anyone showing progress? I don't wanna miss out on this feature!
Let's all sink into it and report here!
My friend has a prepaid mtctouch line and his FaceTime is activated :@
mr-iphone
Dear akramk, have you tried using Facetime on your friend's phone with your Alfa sim card? Is Facetime still active since it was already activated with the MTC sim card? Can you try it please?
akramk
Already did mr iPhone. But It deactivated his FaceTime so I decided to seize the entire operation :P
Already had the idea 1 week ago it's a good one but pity it doesn't work!
mr-iphone
This is really frustrating ... I've been trying all possible solutions to activate Facetime with no success... Have anyone tried "FaceNow" (it's a free app at the app store) ...
akramk
I did already, completely useless. A shortcut for facetime contacts, requires facetime activated!
mojo
Called Alfa and sent the tech guys a few emails regarding facetime. the problem is that the 1 time activation sms sent from Apple's UK server to the phone is reaching MTC users but not Alfa (my brother's MTC line was activated immediatly and he was able to initiate the call even while on flight mode with only wifi turned on). for some reason the sms is being blocked and they have no clue what to do....
All of us need to put pressure on them
mr-iphone
Dear mojo, just called alfa (after I visited them 3 weeks ago and got no feedback since then) and i was told that someone else has the same Facetime issue (I think it's you, since they said I'm the second person) and that they're investigating it at the IT dept. ... Anyway, I told them that if they don't get us and answer in one week or so, I'll raise the whole issue in the newspapers precisely An-nahar Newspaper ...
mojo
Just received an Email from them that they will be contacting me soon and that the concerned department is handling it.... Hope there's some truth to that
samer
Mr. iPhone, I will call tomorrow and pressure them as well.
