Dialing out with Sony Ux? - Off-topic

I own a sony ux (http://www.sonystyle.com/webapp/wcs...&productId=11040489&SR=sony_search_seo&SQS=ux)
And I also have a sim card in it so I have Internet where ever I go. I was wondering if anyone knows if its possible to make outgoing calls using the AT&T Network and my sim card? Not voip, but like a cell phone.
I see that someone is working on using a skype dialer and an iphone skin to create a phone, but not sure if this is what I am looking for.

Let me know if I am way out of bounds here....
Thanks

XDA ii keeps avtivating Call barring

I have set up my Xda ii to make calls, sinc to my PC and also surf the internet via PC and GPRS. However, it keeps activating my call barring and I am not able to make calls and even receive calls.
I cannot find a way to to activate calls via my Pocket PC. The only way to fix the problem is for me to put my sim card into another phone to activate use online. Then place sim card back into my Pocket PC to resume normal calling operation.
This problem persist regular on a daily basis and Im getting very tired of having to replace my sim into another phone just to fix the problem.
Can someone please please tell me how I can stop this from happening?
Many thanks and kindest regards in advance,

3 way / conference calling

"Hi, I recently purchase sprint touch pro, coming from a at&t tilt, & tmobile mda be for that. Ive come very use to useing the confrence call feature that they used to have. Its driving me nuts to think they would leave this feature out on whats suppose to be an up grade/ newer phone.(right?) Has anyone have this same issue/problem?? & is there a way to download a new dialer program to correct this. please inform me thanks.."
I've got some issues with my TP too... Dialer is hanging when I'm making Video Call and Someone I'm dialing is picking up the phone. Same thing happens when I'm picking up a video call.
I've allready checked many ROMs and RADIOs... Nothing changes.
Yea me 2 maybe someone could use the ATT tilt dialer an modify it to work on the Sprint TP that would be nice, someone said to call HTC an complain an if we complain enough that they would fix it but i think that its gonna take forever for that to happen an a dialer fix would be much faster...

[Q] Calling when out of the country...

Hello,
I'm going to be going to Canada and would like to know if there is any app out there that is gonna let me call people via a wifi connection. It would be too expensive to use even a calling card. I know Skype would probably do the trick but if there's something else that would be great (Skype's a bit of a battery killer).
Also, if anyone knows of any apps for texting that would be great as well. Google Voice is fine, but it send texts from the Google Voice number. And Whattheapp is fantastic but only for people who have it as well. I just need to be able to contact people who only use simple SMS.
Thank you guys!!
Can a mod move this to the Q&A section? I'll probably get more views that way. Thanks!
Maybe using Tikl, but that replies on the people you want to call also having it on their phones... Other than that, yeah, you'll need some sort of VoIP app/service.

[Q] free calls over Wifi in Iraq/Kuwait

Hey Devs I could really use your help in this matter. Here is the deal, I would like to find a way to be able to make free phone calls using my Captivate while deployed to Iraq/Kuwait. I will be leaving soon and would like some help with a "be all" solution. I use ATT but I don't think that really matters for what I am wanting to accomplish. I have searched all over the internet and I see a bunch of way to do this...in USA. I can't seem to find a way that will work in Iraq. I have tried to use a combo of Sipgate + Google Voice but I read somewhere that google voice only works in USA and the steps that are used appear to be for a past version of the phone app and i can't seem to get it to work correctly. I don't have a lot of time to try and figure this out because I leave very soon. If anybody knows of the steps needed to allow free cell phone calls over Wifi in the middle east, please help me out.
I know I can use Skype and that is the preferred way but that means that my all my friends and family will have to be defendant on a computer or a smart phone. I don't want that, I would like to be able to call any number on any phone over Wifi.

Skype can call mobile and land lines. You just need to have credit. I know its not free. But there really is no free way to make calls over wi-fi.
**Edit: at least not any good means.
Google Voice only really works to US *numbers*, but the free inbound you get from Sipgate One is a US number, so it works.
The only problem is latency and variable call quality, but if you're half a world away people should be understanding...
For apps I suggest Xinlu's Google Voice Callback and CSipSimple.
Ummm ive been to kuwait and the wifi over there is not good enough to be making calls on ur phone via wifi best bet is skype or other services and or just get a local sim card over there and make cell calls and also u should just use the free dsn lines they have over there.

Orange WiFi Calling Settings

Hi guys,
Unfortunately, the area i live in has incredibly bad signal for all networks and back with my HTC sensation i used to have a orange signal boost app which enabled me to use something called UNA to make and receive calls through my home WiFi.
Since moving to my lovely new One, I dont have this option. I havent even bothered to get on the phone to Orange as they prove to be useless every time.
After doing a bit of research and playing with my phone, I found out about the Internet Calls within settings but it needs account settings.
Like with the 3g settings, are there some generic orange settings someone would be able to tell me that will enable me to use this feature?
Any help would be greatly received!
Thanks,

The Internet Call feature is for those with accounts with the likes of sipgate. You can make free calls to other SIP numbers but will need to buy credit when dialing normal numbers.

Bugger! Thanks for the reply.
Doesnt look like its happening then!
Do you happen to know if the tmobile wifi calling apk is anywhere available. I've had a search and cant seem to find it. I ask as that seems to be available on the one and TMobile kinda the same as Orange as both owned by EE and I just thought id try a punt at the app also working on orange.

Is this what your referring to?
A quick Google search threw up lots of possible links.

Yeah that's the one, but sorry, i should have been a bit more specific, I meant the apk off a one as it seems to be shipped with the one tmobile branded versions so I figured I would have the best chance with that version.
I'm bumping this thread to see if there are any solutions for this a few months on. I also live in a poor area for reception with Orange / EE, but I do have a decent net connection and WiFi. To make matters worse, I get an equally poor signal at work and constantly have to move my phone around to pick up texts.
The EE website has the following information for those unfamiliar, but the feature isn't currently supported in any ROMs I have tried:

Despite this sounding like a fantastic feature, I can barely find any information on the forums or through Google.
