Thanks for the response.

The issue is reproducible, and seems to happen with all outgoing calls. Incoming calls do not trigger the bug, the connection to the mobile network stays.

I downloaded and installed the new RIL and froyo.user.conf file from your last link and rebooted.

Extracted RIL in root director on the SD card, froyo.user.conf renamed to eliminate the .txt and placed in the conf directory off the root.

The phone connected upon boot and I was able to make one call and now I'm "searching for service" again. It will receive incoming calls but I cannot dial out.

Going into *#*#info#*#* still fixes it the same way.

Typing numbers into the phone dial pad now has about a 3 second delay for every other number (so if i type 1800 it will accept 1 , hang , 80 , hang, 0).

I did a soft reset of phone and relaunched back into android. I had the "searching for service" immediately from boot (had to dial INFO) but the hang is gone?

I appreciate the help, any other suggestions?
