If anyone wants to get FaceIt-3GS working on 3G download from cydia -> 3G Unrestrictor. Once you download that go to Edit -> + -> search MobilePhone (FaceTime) add that to the List and your good to go. Enjoy!

Installed on iphone 3GS OS 4.1. Wow.. worked perfectly.
Initially if you go settings at SpringBoard, go Phone and you see, waiting for authorization, once you close the settings and reopen it again, it showed "Your phone number will be shared with people you call with FaceTime"
Go to contact list and select a contact and you realize the FaceTime button is appeared.
I tried called a iphone4 and it showed the camera upside down while waiting to connect iphone4. Once connected, everything is prefect !!

Once I turn it on, I get a "Waiting for Activation" message, but nothing happens?? So I uninstalled it, reboot, and surprise something messes up the phone, and I get no keyboard sounds, no alerts, no vibraton, etc.. anyways, I had to reinstall the app in order to get my phone to work correcty, but the facetime video won't work!!!

To answer my earlier question 3G Unrestrictor (and i would imagine My3G) works perfectly with this. I made a 3G facetime call from a car to my friends iPhone 4. I had to redraft a couple of times to get FaceTime to activate before I unrestricted it.

Yah after installing faceit and getting it to work (which took a couple reboots and I think being in range of both WiFi and 3g) I added it to 3g Unrestrictor. It was called MobilePhone (facetime)

Thanks Dan, I had to search for Mobile Phone in 3G Unr. Thats why I didnt find it the first time. It works now. Much Appreciated!

hitler is the biggest terriost who killed more than 6 million people and he was a christian, so does that mean all christian s are terrorist???. Learn english n learn what terrorism means... who ever terrorises anybody is a terrorist... so if u have threatened or scared anybody and terrorise anybody ur terrorist as well...

Hitler wasn't the biggest terrorist, but close. FYI he wasn't Christian either. Your both blind. Lets not compare religions, it will not bring peace among men.

Doesn't work for me. The option doesn't show up in the phone menu. Also breaks my phones sound and vibration when I uninstalled it. Reinstalled to make it work again but still no facetime option. It seems to modify some of the same files as my haptic keyboard mod. Which I suspect may have something to do with my problems...

You have to wait a while for it to activate ( 5-10 min maybe a bit more). Be patient.

Is the camera funky for anyone else? Flipped, etc? Maybe I'm holding my 3GS wrong. Turn it sideways & it's flipped wrong. Oh well. Works great though!

Note: It seems the person with an IPhone 4 must select facetime on THEIR phone for it to work correctly.

I was able to successfully call myself from the OS X version of facetime to my 3gs.
Does anyone know if this works with My3g to allow 3g facetime?
