Linphone is for making voip calls over the internet using the SIP
protocol. Unless your friend's mobile has a matching SIP agent and has
registered with a sip "registry", then you won't be able to connect.

At least, it could be possible if your SIP registry has a gateway to the public/mobile
telephone network, but they usually charge for that. 

Since you say that "it says I am connected" then you presumably have
registered with some SIP registry or other. It seems that they don't
have a gateway, or that you have not activated it. Maybe you need to
choose another SIP provider that does provide a gateway if that is what
you want.
