HELP re: Nokia phone problems

[jayk]

Hey guys

An oldish phone I'm using (Nokia, flips open so you can type in Chinese characters) that my mom has been using for quite some time, all of a sudden doesn't allow outgoing calls.

Everytime an outgoing call is made (tried my cell and home #, both not busy), you get 3 tones in ascending pitch, and the phone keeps repeating these 3 tones over and over, similar to what you'd hear if you have a busy signal.

Also, the top left hand corner somehow says "2G." But when you dial there is a diagonal line through the "G".

Is there anything I can do about this?

Thanks

is there a menu in the phone called active line? if so check it and put it back from line 2 to line 1. that should work.
