Thank you (RJSummons18) for submitting this request to us!!! AWESOME FIND!!!

A couple of us were looking around in Cydia over the past few days, when we stumbled across a couple programs we thought would be pretty cool to test out!

So, this is how we did it ...

First off, we're using a 16gb iPhone 3G, running 3.0 firmware, jailbroken & unlocked for T-Mobile , and also, a 16gb iPhone 3G, running 3.0 firmware, jailbroken for AT&T, and we downloaded (Tricker ThreeG) and (VoIPover3G) through Cydia, and went from there!

We signed up with iCall (free calling over wi-fi), downloaded Fring (through app store) and Skype (through app store), and found out that , by using (Tricker ThreeG and VoIPover3G), we could make calls over T-Mobile's EDGE network, and also, AT&T's 3G network...

T-Mobile's EDGE network is EXTREMELY horrible when you're making VoIP calls over it, but it works!! , there's just SO MUCH lag, and it's very crackly on the other person's end... BUT, if you're out of minutes, and need to make a call.... this is the way to go!!!

On the other hand, AT&T's 3G network is AMAZING for VoIP calling, and we found that Skype is the best quality calling you can possibly get when it comes to (Cellular Data Networks), versus Fring and iCall (iCall coming in 2nd place), and we used Fring with (VoIPStunt)...

With AT&T's 3G network, we were constantly at a reasonable talking level, and neither us, nor the other party had any trouble hearing eachother... SO, we've decided to cut back on how many minutes we're getting through AT&T, (going from 900 to 400), and instead, we'll be using Skype for most of our calls from now on (as we're almost ALWAYS in 3G).

You can download these programs through Cydia, then restart your iPhone, and download Skype through the app store, but make sure you have a skype account before you download the app!! It's about $3.00 a month for UNLIMITED calling, and I (and 3 other guys) are saving roughly $25 a month by using this option!!

You can CLICK HERE to sign up with Skype and test it out for yourself!!!

Definitely an AWESOME find !!!
