I don't know what dialer is in the ROM you are using. If it is not the HTC phone canvas and you are using Sense, you won't be able to make calls from the People tab without using a mod made by amarullz at xda. PhonEx is a nice phonecanvas that can be added on separately (need to pay after the trial). It won't interface with Sense either unless you use amarullz "No HTC Phone Canvas" hack. If you give some more info (like how you are 'dialing' them that is not working and what phonecanvas is in the ROM), I can probably be more specific on how to get it working.

Thanks for trying to help me understand this stuff. As far as I know, I am not using any special dialer, just what came with the rom. This is what I am doing to make a call... I press the phone button. Hit the "All" button on the bottom left. Select the specific contact that I want to call (the contact photo is that person's facebook photo, which automatically synced when I activated/started using the facebook tab). Then I select to call the mobile phone. The screen then goes into what I call the "Dialing..." screen, but after a couple seconds makes either a busy tone or an audible buzzing noise, briefly shows the dialer pad, and then goes to the contact's details again.
Again, this only happens with my contacts that have a facebook account. However, if I use the dial pad and manually dial the number (doesn't matter if i dial with the area code or not), it will make the call. It will also show the "Dialing" screen that I mentioned. The call goes through like normal.
I also tried what you said and deleted and readded a contact. However, when trying to link the contact to a facebook profile, the contact is not there anymore so I don't know what happened there.
I did try to put in a Devotion dialer (linked in vin's 2nd post) when the rom was fresh but it didn't seem to do anything so I removed the program under settings. This didn't seem to affect anything as far as I know. I still was able to call normally. Again, I only noticed the problem after I started using the facebook tab.
Sorry if I typed too much but I tried to put as much info as I can... And thanks for the help.
