N73 cant call from 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,

same is the problem here... i cannot call contacts on my n73 by pressing the green button nd even can't on the speaker during the conversation.......!!!!
but after restarting the phone, it works fine form a day or two, but the problem persists....
PLZ NYONE CAN SOLVE DIS PROBLEM....????

hey there,
Have you tried to check the settings of your phone under call settings?or the least thing i think the reason why you are not capable of outgoing calls is that your in line 2. In order for you to disable it just long press the pound key which is located at the buttom right keypad of your device.let me know then if that works and lets try another options.......

How can I block 'no caller id' calls from contacting me?

Over the last couple of days someone has got a hold of my number, and has been calling me with a private number. I want to know if there is a way I can block all calls on my phone that come from a private 'no caller ID' number, and only allow ones that have a caller ID through. I have tried contacting my service provider Telstra which they said the most they can do is put me on the do not call register (which doesn't help my situation at all, as the person isn't a telemarketer). Does anyone have any ideas about how to fix my problem?
Thanks.
(I have an iPhone 5 iOS 7.1.1 and my service provider is Telstra Australia)

There is no Third Party App you can load onto an iPhone that will be allowed to take over your iPhone's Phone without jailbreaking your device (which cannot be discussed here nor would I ever recommend doing it).
One feature you can use is the Do Not Disturb feature. You can set it to allow calls from your Favorites then add all of your people to your favorites, but that is not quite what you are asking for.

Is it possible to make a phone call from contact in Cambodia with Miss Siri ?

I've got a Iphone 4S which's shiped from Singapore , love it so much . But one thing , i couldn't understand , many thing i can ask Miss siri to do for me exclude make a phone call for contact or any number . I tried to use 10 digits number of my contact , she responsed " Sorry [Myname] , i can't call [contact name]" , and then i tried with 11 digits , she still responsed as previous question .... I'm so doubt that , last time , i tried with my country code : +855 or 855. and then i restarted my iPhone 4S . She still made me angry .......... ....... Anyone please tell me how to use Miss Siri to make a phone call ? ( Note : Location : Cambodia , Phnom Penh City )

No, the feature works at home by going through your iPhone to make the call.
There are Apps for the iPad which allow this: Skype, etc.

IPhone4 gets calls from contacts but when attending, the call is reversed.

My iPhone 4 with iOS6 occasionally gets a call from my contacts and when I attend the call, I hear the phone ringing and that contact gets a call from me. This is weird because, I used two sims in the same device and the problem still exists. I also tried formatting the phone and reinstalling iOS. I asked the service provider (Vodafone IN) customer care, but they are not sure what the problem is.

I read two functional requirements here:
When there are no agents available in CSQ1, simultaniously queue the call into CSQ2.
Allow internal employees to transfer calls to CSQ2 specifically.
For the first requirement you can just nest a second Select Resource step within the Queued condiiton of the first Select Resource step.
For the second just create a second trigger on the same application, use a Get Trigger Info step to understand which trigger was used. Use that with an If step and a Goto step to skip forward in the script to the nested Select Resource step of CSQ2 if the internal-only trigger was used.

Igonre calls from contact list

Does anyone know how to set where in I can ignore calls from the people on my contact list. I get the screen to ignore when people not in my contact list call, however when some one from the list calls, I do not get that option. Any set up changes. ideas ????

Well, technically you can/could. It's a feature called 'Smart Limits'. However, AT&T no longer allows you to block incoming calls due to potential 911 call-back issues. If you had the feature when it first came out you can still use it but no new subscribers are able to add the feature. It will allow toy block up to 15 specific numbers. It is currently being tested until it has all of the issues sorted out.

Incoming phone calls from Contacts-pictures

How can I make the pictures come back on my contacts. Before it would show the nice picture of the contact. Now it's just a little tiny circle with with newest update 7.1. I like the old incoming call/answering set up better. How do I change that in settings back to the previous update (atleast).

N97 unable to make a call from contacts list

Hey, I was looking for some confirmation from others about this. I tried to make a call this morning by doing exactly what I would do on my E71 or N95 when a contact has multiple numbers:
1) Opened up my contacts.
2) Clicked a contact with multiple numbers, that already had a default one set.
3) The main contact screen pops up that shows you the picture of the person and gives you 4 options of things to do.
4) Because I wanted to call one of the other phone numbers, not the default one, I clicked the tab at the top that shows you all the contact information you have for said contact.
5) I then clicked the number I wanted and then clicked the call button.
6) Nothing happened. I kept clicking it thinking it didn't register and still nothing happened.
I tried this for 6 other contacts who have multiple numbers with defaults, and I even tried it with contacts who had only one number. I'm not allowed to make a call that way. The only way to make a phone call to a contact with multiple numbers is to not have any defaults set so when I go to step (3) above, I have to click "Voice call" and then select the number I want to call.
This **bleep** me off like nothing else after I discovered this. So before I go have a pleasant conversation with someone from Nokia I just wanted to know if this is the same for everybody else.
Thanks.

Hi there,
Similar issue can up with MMS/SMS'ing to non-default numbers (Clicky...)
You need to use the same process, ie...
Open Contacts >> Open the contact you wish to phone >> With Voice Call selected click "options" >> "Select other number" >> then just pick the number you want to call.
Slightly easier than SMS/MMS'ing as Voice Call is at the top of the list so selected by default
Hope this helps

Can't Call From Contact List

When I pull up anyone from my contact list, tap the number to activate a call, I get the text message window. The only way I can make a call is through the keypad. Any ideas on how to correct this?
