Q: iPhone 4: iOS 7.1.1 - Face time app disappeared

ON the home screen, swipe down across the apps so you get the search field and keyboard...type FaceTime to see the app icon and open it.  Should then appear on your home screen.  Also, did you set a restriction code?  If so you need to release that to have it available Gain.

What carrier/country are you using the phone in?

If my memory serves me correctly, there is not a supported carrier for the iPhone in Pakistan. Because of that, any carrier file that is sent out by the carrier could have any unknown effect on the iPhone.

FaceTime is banned in your country. That's why.

sir i was having the same issue on iphone 5

what i did is as follows

1 backup ur iphone with itunes

2 restore ur iphone

3 if u have any other carrier sim activate iphone with that( what i did was zong sim)

4 after restore u will get carrier 16.1 instead of 16.2 but u will get the same notification on itunes of carrier settings update

cancel it.

now insert ur ufone sim

facetime will be working

hope it will help you

Regards,

i'm having the exact same problem on iPhone 4 iOS 7.1.1 after updating the carrier settings on ufone, facetime just disappeared.

its not banned here ive been using it since forever on this same carrier, this carrier settings update has made facetime disappear

And the carrier update comes from the carrier, so they are the ones that have done it. As I said before, there is no supported carrier in Pakistan, and if you were to search the forum, you will find a number of other threads regarding FaceTime in Pakistan. One of the threads recommended restoring the phone as new and refusing to accept the carrier update the next time. Not sure how well that might work though.

dear follow my steps and u will get facetime back.

i called ufone but they are denying it.

its clearly mentioned on apple website that carrier settings are provided or updated by the carrier.

First go to restrictions in general settings to see if facetime restriction is on that one reason it may not be showing....another is it could be on the device and is "hidden" go to general reset reset home screen layout....if you have your apps in folder or a certain order you will have to redo them...see then if FaceTime shows...last but not least make sure it is available in your area and that your iPhone is completely up to date

Aslam o Elaikum

I have restored my twice should i follow your steps ??? Are you sure this will help me ??? because mujhey zong sim chooti krwaney jana parey gaaa and its **** hot in islo

Please inform asap
