    Getting FaceTime error: Waiting For Activation

    I comprise an iPhone 4, OS 4.1, jailbroken. I went to exercise FaceTime, and observed the selection was no extended there. I went into Settings- Phone, and observed the FaceTime was locating to "off". I switched it to ON, and it came up saying "Waiting for Activation". It clocks for some seconds, and right away departs back to "OFF". Any thoughts? All threads I have seen say to reinstate in iTunes, which I actually wish to avoid. Please if anyone have any useful tips or information to solve this error than please let me know.

    One time you have relocate your number from your old SIM to your micro SIM you will have to stay a short time. One time your carrier has relocated this you should after that twist your iPhone 4 off and after that twist it back on. After that make sure that you are where you can get a Wi-Fi signal and FaceTime should afterward activate. A figure of proprietors has been complaining that it does not effort, just to discover that they were annoying to utilize 3G – it just efforts with Wi-Fi. Please let me know if you at a standstill have activation troubles.
