Can you still receive calls? Can you connect to the internet using 3G? Do you remember having installed any program before the issue started? You mentioned that you flashed your device, What did you flash, rootfs, eMMC, both?

Thanks for your both responding. In regards of last program i installed i dont remeber. about the flashing, i flashed firmware only, eMMC is not working. The problem still on it, Yes,,, i can receive calls, only OUTGOING CALL not functioning.

i read someone article to use apt-get upgrade to be able to activate missing files or something.

Please advise.

Yes, this was i did when i encountered this error. from PR1.2 i downgraded into PR1.1, then I've encountered NO SIM CARD status. I didn't worried, maybe PR1.2 has ability to disable this, and then i go back to PR1.2 in which i believed that the latest firmware will resolve this issue.

Apparently, still the GENERAL ERROR in call function is not working. currently i don't have any option how to resolve this.

If you could help me on this, i would highly appreciate it.

Open the Application menu -> Launch the Phone app -> Select a contact with the "Select contact" button -> Press the button of the phone number you wish to call.

If the above is not working:
  1. Launch the Backup application, and back up everything on your device
  2. Copy the backups to your PC
  3. Reflash the N900 as described here
  4. Put your backup back

Note that the backup app can save the list of applications you installed, so when restoring your backup, it can re-install them.
