N73 Cannot Call Contacts

Dear Nokia Support Community
It seems that my N73 cannot make calls from within the address book. For example, I would highlight one of my contacts, and press the green button. Under normal circumstances, this should call the contact, however, nothing happens when I do so on my phone.
This symptom occurs after the following: I call a telephone number, I let it ring once, and I hang up without them picking up. Then when I try to call within contacts, the bug appears.
The bug disappears when I restart, however, it reoccurs when I do the above.
This does not seem to be an isolated case (I have read forums where other loyal Nokia users have had the same problem), is there anyone who knows anything about this? I have the latest firmware (V 3.0638.0.0.43) yet this is still occuring.
I sent it to be repaired, but all they did was give it a hard restart with a re installation of the firmware.
Nothing seems to help. Please, any advice would be greatly appreciated,
Wavering Loyal Nokia User,
Kevin

Always nokia peple don't answer??
why? why nokia don't answer about the "Terror Problem" that kills ours n73 mobile phones?...¿?
i contacted a man ho work in the "Nokia Care Center" from Santiago the Chile... and he didn't answer !!!
all people of Nokia Care Center from "Edificio Santiago Centro" in Santiago de Chile can't do nothing! about this...
when i took my phone there (in one of the 3 oportunities) they install the "latest firmware"...
then, they say "Now your phone is perfect"
wen i went to my house (with the phone formated via *#7370# code) i make a sync to put only my contacts in the phone memory... and
THE PROBLEM PERCIST!!!!!!
in one oportunity, one of all the n73 that i have had, showed an error message... wen the bug apeared.. (the same bug, but with an error message)
this is the error:
"aplic. Cerrada
Contactos
ETEXT 12"
Translated:
"app closed
Contacts
ETEXT 12 "
and then another error:
"Aplic. Cerrada:
PhoneServerThread
KERN-EXEC 44"
now my actual new n73 don't show anything wen the bug appears....
the bug appears wen i search a contact putting letter by letter in the Contacts aplication and press send button.... only in the second person ho i call.. and sometimes the fifth person wen i ring once and then cancel the call...
that is important!! ...why? because i make calls sometimes only for ring to a friend (because the prices of the minutes between diferent companies are more elevated)...
so...
now in this forum of "Nokia Support" nokia don't gonna answer again??
like in the Nokia Center Chile and the tecnical service (from Nokia) of my CompanyEntel PCS Chile)..
This is a problem of my phone come on!
Giovanni - I can understand your frustration at this problem, but you have to remember that these forums are an END USER TO END USER SUPPORT MECHANISM and as such the only Nokia People you will see on here are the moderators who will remove offensive posts and make sure people behave nicely to each other. Nokia support staff do *NOT* visit these forums.
You've also posted a message in various other subjects to say that Nokia have deleted this message - as you can see from my response this is UNTRUE.
If you wish to contact Nokia directly you can find their contact details here :
http://www.nokia.com/A4126575
I have tried this on the N95 and this problem does *NOT* happen, so it does *NOT* happen on all N Series phone as another user has specified.
My initial advice to you would be to try wiping your phone totally (first format your memory card and then your phone). The phone can be wiped using the *#7370# code, but please remember this will wipe ALL information from your phone.
Once this has been done do *NOT* install any additional software on the phone. Create a test contact and carry out your test again - does the problem still occur ?
If not then the issue is due to an error with your previous phone configuration. If the problem still occurs then your next stage of diagnostics is to contact Nokia directly via the page I have supplied to you.

  • Cannot call contacts on contact list

    Only new to Blackberry and having issues with calling my contacts... I have synchonized my contacts with outlook using the desktop manager, but when I go to select a contact I want to call it says calls to this number are not available?? But, if I type the number in manually I can call and the contacts name appears. This is the same with sms. Can anyone help?

    Try removing your battery while your device is on - replace it after 30 seconds.  See if you are able to dial from your address book then?
    What kind of phone do you have and who is your provider?

  • Printer HP Envy 4500 Series cannot be contacted over the network

    My wireless printing chooses when it wants to work, and right now it's really acting up. It is connected wirelessly, it is the default printer, but after troubleshooting it is telling me "Printer HP Envy 4500 Series cannot be contacted over the network." What can I do to get printing again?

    Hello featherfamily,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are having an issue with the printer not connecting with a wireless connection.
    Please click on the following link that deals with when the 'Printer is offline' Message Displays on the Computer and the Printer Does Not Print: Windows 7.
    Please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
    If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
    Thanks for your time.

    Have you tried this.
    First check that your privacy settings are set to ''Allow calls from anyone''.
    Then change them to "Allow SkypeIn calls from Only people from my Contacts List".
    Save and wait for 5 minutes.
    Log out from your Skype account and log back in.
    Change settings back to "Allow calls from Anyone".
    Save and wait for 5 minutes.
    Log out from your Skype account and log back in.

  • Cannot call a specific person on FaceTime?

    I have had this problem the past few weeks. I cannot call a friend on FaceTime. It says it is connecting, but always fails. I tried creating a new contact with her info, but no luck. Calling anyone else in my contacts works perfectly. As far as I can tell it's just her.
    I have an iPhone 4s and an running iOS7. Please help.

    Apple has released a document which is reported to address the recent FaceTime issue.

  • I forgot my security question and cannot call Apple Support to change it. What should I do?

    I forgot my security question and cannot call Apple Support to change it, because I am outside the country and the only support number for that is an 1-800 number. What should I do?

    1. See my User Tip for some help: Some Solutions for Resetting Forgotten Security Questions: Apple Support Communities.
    2. Here are two different but direct methods:
        a. Send Apple an email request at: Apple - Support - iTunes Store - Contact Us.
        b. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support
            and service.
