Found it. I messed around with adb logcat, adb shell dumpsys and Titanium Backup's Freeze feature. I have succesfully narrowed it down (on my device) to an App called "Pullups 2.04" by "NorthPark" from the Play Store.

You have multiple options to solve this:
Go to Settings->Apps, scroll to Skype, open it, and hit the "Clear Defaults" button
If that for some reason does not work: simply install some other VoIP app, try to call a person again (now you should be able to chose), hangup, and remove the other VoIP app again
Try Default App Manager Lite, DefaultApp Reset, or ...

You can try to make your (perhaps incompatible) keyboard work using Externel Keyboard Helper.

The Samsung Galaxy S2 does have dual microphones.
However, if using Gingerbread (2.3), the device only records mono audio.

what I would suggest is that you flash your device with Odin, your files such as mp3, pictures and videos would be untouched, basically every file on the internal SD memory would be untouched, if you have your contacts synced with Google you should be able to get it back.
but this would void your warranty
sorry I assumed you could boot into recovery or ...

This problem usually occurs when, for whatever reason, your phone is set to only use WiFi to make calls in the call preferences menu. On Android, with Jelly Bean upgrade, some apps will alter this setting apparently. Here's the fix. Enjoy!
From home screen, access Apps/Settings/More Settings/Wifi Calling (Press the part to the right of the on/off button to ...

Did you have Lookout or another security app installed? Most of them have remote-wipe features. If you didn't, there's also Lookout's Plan B from Google Play. I don't think Plan B allows remote wipe, but even still, it's likely your best bet.
