I have had the same experience with making calls. It seems to have much
more problems with incoming calls than outgoing calls.
Also was dually impressed with the screen quality, it is stunning!

Eh, I sent this to just Walter first. Isn't Reply-To supposed to go to
the list?
I had the same experience as Walter with my Neo. I can sometimes make
calls, but usually one of the components crashes. So far I haven't
heard anyhting out of the Neo's microphone, but I think I was using the
wrong alsa state file.
I'm using a build I did on 7/29. My SIM is my usual US T-Mobile one.
At least there are things to work on. :)

Dear All,
I'm the proud owner of a neo advanced kit and the first thing that
struck me is clear the LCD is! WOW! I didn't realize it would be THAT good.
Anyway, I read on the lists of all the success-stories of people using
their phone to make phone-calls. I didn't expect to be able to make
phone calls so I was pleasantly surprised.
I have eventually made a successful phone-call too, but with a lot of
trouble. gsmd and/or the modem and/or the openmoko-dialer kept crashing
on me. Using alsactl (to set the profile to headset) and libgsmd -m
shell I was finally able to make a phone call but after one call I had
to restart gsmd and sometimes even the phone.
Don't get me wrong, I didn't expect to be able to make phone-calls _at
all_ so I'm pleasantly surprised. But I was wondering what the
experiences of other owners is in this area.
I used a Dutch T-mobile card and a Dutch Telfort prepay-card with the
same level of success.
Accepting a call from the GUI always resulted in openmoko-dialer crashing...
Did I interpret the enthusiasm of other users too positive or should I
investigate more as to why it keeps crashing on my neo?
I used images compiled on 28,30&31 July for testing.
Hope to hear your experiences!
