"When can we expect this glitch to be sorted?"
Judging by Nokias interaction here and my first hand experience of their 'Nokia Care', anytime between now and when Hell freezes over.
I have just had my phone returned to me after giving it to my local Nokia 'Care' shop. They did precisely NOTHING. Didn't change the FW, didn't replace the handset, didn't bother to even call me when it was ready to pick up (I had to call - 'Oh yeah, that's been ready for a while').
They just took the phone bare-bones, didn't bother to wrap ot or label it. The Nokia 'Care' representative also refused to take my printed out A4 letter clearly explaining my issues, stating that the 'engineers' 'wouldn't read and couldn't care less about it.'
Sure enough, as expected the 'engineers' simply re-installed the Nokia Diagnostic app (which we've all be running here), and then 'tested the unit' and found no problems. In doing so, completely ignoring the long term erratic battery life issues and completely ignoring the fact that the phone will spend days NOT ENDING CALLS!
Nokia - This phone may look pretty. But your software and customer service are both DISGRACEFUL.
Furthermore - I was also informed that Nokia runs a '3 returns' policy before they will consider giving me a replacement unit. So i'd have to waste over a month having this phone sent back and forth before hand. What choice do I now have other than selling the handset at a great loss?

@zyxwv
the best way is to contact your service provider. I just disabled mine through the o2 website (had to chat to one of their "online gurus") I'll report if this seems to fix the problem.
and for whatever reason nobody from Nokia is responding to this particular thread, but over in the Lumia 710 thread there have been further pleas from the Nokia staff to bear with them and be patient for a solution.

I have loved the phone. But this problem is really annoying me. I dont know why Nokia or windows is not bothered for such a big bug. Everytime i mke a call its just cant end for about 5 min. Till that time i cant even make any other calls. Its just not fullfilling the basic phone functionality first before calling it a smart phone. I think if it continues they will loose again like Symbian was. Immediate actions should be taken else wp7+nokia fails.

Thank you this worke for me.
I had the same problem, namely whenever I called back a missed call my nokia lumia 800 got literally blocked and then it restarted after 15-25 sec. I went 3 times 50km way to nokia service in Wavre (BE) but my issue was not solved. I even had my telephone changed last time.
So I tried your steps #2 and 3 and it worked. At least it has been no issue for the last 15minutes.
One specification though guys, for steps 2 and 3 you have to go to settings then mobile network (there you'll be able to perform these actions).
I hope you will solve your issues as well.

Sorry guys, I see that my comment figures as the last one, but the important e-mail with necessary solution is on another page, so perhaps it should be useful to recall the steps I referred to;
So, the solution that worked for me was
Steps:
2. Switch off 3G in cellular settings;
3. Switch on roaming;
