undid previous edit to clarify that I'm not interested in a purely academic question of whether this can work in this scenario, but I am actually trying to solve my problem

How can I get Find My iPhone to work on a Jailbroken iPhone on iOS 5 with no data plan?

I am using Find my iPhone on a Jailbroken iPhone 4 running iOS 5.0.1. My service does not have a data plan. It is T-mobile with only voice and SMS.

When trying to view the location in Find My iPhone, it shows my phone as "Offline" even though I am connected to an active Wi-Fi signal and have location services on. When viewing the Find My iPhone app in iOS, it displays my phone as "No location available".

I've tried all steps in Troubleshooting Find My iPhone under "'No location available' alert", but the issue persists.
