April 1 UPDATE: Complaining that after updating mobile substrate voipover3g and backgrounder isn’t working?

Saurik just released another update of mobilesubstrate 0.9.2805-1. This version fixes the problem entirely allowing for mobilesubstrate addons to work with Skype app. You can now use Skype app with VoIPover3G! and backgrounder. Just update mobile substrate on Cydia once more and enjoy skype on the go!

I can confirm that it does work on 3.0 over 3G.

Important solutions to the COMPLAINERS:

1. Complaining that you can’t use Skype on 3G using firmware 2.x?

* Just Jailbreak your iphone and install voipover3g app from cydia. Jailbreakers will be able to save their minutes whenever they want because this app makes the iPhone think that it is on wifi all the time.

2. Complaining that you can’t run skype in the background while using another application?

* Just install backgrounder app from cydia on your jailbroken phone.

I’ve seen some twitter comments that say the chat features work on 3g.
