How to Use Skype & Fring Over 3G on Your iPhone
I know how’re you’re feeling for not being able to use Skype or Fring on the run over 3G/EDGE. I personally used to be annoyed over this. Well, I did patch Fring to use over 3G as I posted here before. But doing that was a bit of a hassle. But fortunately you don’t have to go through that hassle anymore. To patch either Fring or Skype now, all you’ve to do is intall VoIPover3G & Mobile Substrate and you’re done. The only catch is, you’ve to have a Jailbroken iPhone and Cydia installed. If yo haven’t jailbroken your iPhone yet then here’s how to do it.
VoIPover3G tricks apps into thinking that they’re running over Wi-Fi while they’re actually running over 3G. It has been in Cydia for a while now and had Fring & Truephone included. They’ve just added Skype in the app too so now all you’ve to do is open Cydia and search for VoIPover3G & Mobile Substrate and install them and you’re done!
Easy, ai!!

Silly question > I cant find Alt >Option on my keyboard as per your jailbreak instructions.
Everything else seems straightforward.
Thanks for your help
