if brother 1 calls you, then either you or brother 1 have the ability to call brother 2 and conference him in. but if brother 1 calls you, then brother 2 calls you, YOU WILL NOT HAVE THE ABILITY TO CONFERENCE THAT CALL.
CHILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL mah brotha. See here's the problem everybody here is just used to CDMA (Sprint/Verizon) and have never really used GSM (T-Mobile/ATT)

This is one of the stupider (yeah I said it) things that CDMA users gotta deal with. With GSM if you are on the phone with someone and someone else calls you there are 2 options either A) Go to the other line and talk to that person while the first person is on hold or B) Connect the second person that called you into a "conference call". With CDMA YOU have to call everyone with GSM you can do that OR have the 2 people call you.

This is why there is no "Straight Talk" feature on the CDMA Touch Pros because of the stupid *** way the network works. With GSM Touch Pro's you can connect like 5 people all through YOUR phone.

i understand this, the frustration is coming in when he says he has done this before. he is a sprint customer according to his tag, if he has sprint, he is lying and never has done this. this is my point. also he writes with all other phones this would work, which is also a lie.

i wasn't aware that gsm networks had this ability. I wouldn't want this, someone could accidently conference in 2 parties that you would definitely not want talking 2. if sprint did this, i would have to go to another company, i would be in too much trouble.

Re: normal 3-way calling issue

alright, I was mistaken on the both parties calling me. but other cases where one party calls in, you can hold the 1st call, call the 3rd party and conference everyone in. it's just not intuitive on the tp2. tried on a Droid and it was so simple.

just tested out Sprint situations with a TP2, mogul, and landline.

sorry if i caused an uproar...all resolved.

I dont know if this has been resolved yet, but try pressing FLASH rather then conference.

Believe me it's not THAT easy. It like your on the phone with your mans, then your other mans calls you on the other line, you switch to him, hit options/menu and then conference or connect all to connect both calls.

It's not something that could ever happen automatically or by accident you actually have to go through like 2 menus to do it on 99% GSM phones. If someone did it by accident then they're just a flutz and shouldn't bother using cellphones at all.
