Dash Conference Call Not working - HTC Excalibur

In my Tmobile dash, unlocked, I cannot make a conference call. While in a call, I open the menu but there is no swap and conference is darkened and not available.
Is there anyway to get it working?

I have the same question... and I dont know how to use it either...

Unlocked?
Is your dash unlocked? Did the conference menu ever worked? did you try to reset?

I think you either need to hold the call, dial the new number and then conference.

Oh I see, I will try that...

Great
Hey, yep, i did the hold, made the other call, then conference worked fine to join the two.
THanks

Voicemail message

What happen to the good old days when it was "HI,PLEASE LEAVE A MESSAGE".
*BEEP*......Now you have to listen to five minutes of recordings before you can leave a message.I`m sure people hang up so they dont have to listen to all that.Is there a way to by-pass all that yackady-yack?
Can you tell i`m bored?
If you are calling a tmobile number and go to their voicemail system press 4. Sprint and alltel press 1. Verizon sucks so you will have to listen forever.
Hope that helps out a little.

Ok..cool..Is there a way to take that recordings off my phone?(tmobile)
If you are referring to the computer automated woman that talks after your message, as far as I know the answer is no. You can call tmobile and ask but I dont think you will get to far.
I hate them so much that i turn them off soon as get a phone, if anyone really needs to speak to me then they can phone me again, if i'm not answering genrally it's because i don't want too
They should be band JK

dial tone?

i havent been here in a while (guess thats a good sign) due to the fact that my dash has been working perfectly.
however today people have been telling me that they couldnt reach my voicemail and instead all they hear is a dial tone, no ringing, no voicemail..straight to dial tone.
i tried calling myself through another phone..and they were right.
i'm still able to call people, connect to the internet..just no incoming call
help?

Are you with tmobile? I am having the same problem right now. I am able to call out to other, but no one can call in to my phone. I think there is a power outage at tmobile....

5% of the T.mo customers have been hit with this nationwide. I was one of them.

I think conference calls are network dependent. you make a call then call someone else and then i think you press menu key and merge calls. T mobile does not allow it.
Instead search for hullo group call which might work for you.
hope that helps.
I do conference in this way (I use HTC Legend):
- Make one normal call with the first person of the conference. Wait him to answer the call. Then:
- Click on Apps/Phone. Enter the name or number of the second person and click on "Call" (sorry if it appears a bit different in your phone, I am translating from my Spanish phone). Wait this person to answer the phone. The first call will be automatically on hold
- Now, in the bottom right corner of the screen, you will have an icon to "join in conference". Just click on il and the conference will start.
I think conferences are really useful. With Android need to do several clicks but works fine (the quality of the conference will depend of the network. Usually conference are enabled on networks because operators gets more money -they get more calls at the same time)
It should also work in a similar way if the people of the conference calls you, instead of you calling to them. But you should enable "waiting call" option on your phone network options to be warned when the second person call you.
Hope this helps.

Conference Calls Issue

I am able to make conference calls only when I dial out both the numbers.
1. I dial the first number
2. Go to menu click 'Add Call' and call the other number
3. Merge the two
Is it not possible to put someone who is calling me on conference if I am already on a call?
tkz
I looked around, and actually did not see anyone speaking of being able to do that. They all referenced you having to call both lines.
Thanks for the reply. I read somewhere else stating it aint possible coz of the way CDMA works.

Emergency Call Button

I was just wondering what the Emergency Call button does. I'm not going to push it for fear of accidentally dialing 911. Does it auto dial 911? Does it give you a keypad and let you dial any number? Can you access your contacts? Can you voice dial? I just want to know what it does exactly.
I'm pretty sure it opens a dial pad that can only dial emergency numbers like 911

Emergency call button is intended for emergency numbers. Perhaps, the 911 will be activated automatically once it is pressed. But honestly I do have a little knowledge about it.

Emergency call button does for asserting the emergency numbers. Perhaps, the 911 will surely be activated automatically once it was opened. It can do many activities, but I am not sincerely so much particular about them.

Wow, thanks for resurrecting a 5 month old thread to provide those wonderful words of wisdom.
only opens the dialpad for you to dial 911
I was curious one time with mine and it directly dialed 911 after pushing it.
