The talisman was always a piece of paper - it was merely a conduit for YW's feelings. And the phone (whose importance was shown over and over) was conduit for HJ. Her earlier call didn't go through but this one did because he was dying at that moment (plus, the fact that she remembered him despite the Universe's rule counts for something, I think). I think it's the fact that he was willing and ready to die combined with her love and possibly any after effects of the original talisman that did it.
