Don't know if this is Kaiser only, but since I'ts a kaiser thats giving me grief here goes...
We're using a mobile switchboard and as part of the group answering our main phonenumber I'd really like to be able to transfer calls with my Kaiser...
Normal phones (as in my last Nokia E61i as well as my N95) gives me the options to park the current call, dial my colleague and then "transfer".. I can't find this option on my Kaiser..
Is this option not available in WM6 or is it HTC that has "removed" it? Or perhaps, is there a thirdparty software to help me with it
Go to Start / Settings / Phone / Services / Call Forwarding.
I'm talking about call transferring not call forwarding..
Transfer = I answer the call, call another contact & transfer it to him..
Forward = all my calls go to another contact and/or number...
Can I push this up, cause I'm desperatly looking for this function on the kaiser.
Maybe there's some addon or a special key combination to activate call transfer on the htc kaiser?
yep - this is possible but is network dependent.
you need to put the call on HOLD.
call your colleage/2nd party.
CONFERENCE the call (so you and 2 callers can hear each other)
then YOU hang up - they are left connected and chatting (but at the expense of YOUR bill!!!)
Hope this helps you.

Thanks for the answer! I will try this when I'm back in my company.
The costs are no problem because we call each other in the company for free and the call transfer is only needed to redirect customers to the right contact but I think it's a long way round when there could be a simple option in the menu (like hold and conference). Every other mobile I know offers a direct way to do this (either a menu item called transfer or by pressing a number).

Tested it and it doesn't work. It simply quits the complete conference.
Again, maybe there's a special dialer which supports it or some kex combination to press.
I really need this feature!
Solved!
So here's the way it works on wm devices:
Get the first call and put it on hold.
Make the second call and press the number 4 followed by the green phone button.
The second call is now transferred to the first and you are finished.
Great thanks to my phone provider ONE who came up with it!
Nice find! Does not work on my Q-Mobile 1.2 Tilt with AT&T.
I get "cannot conference calls"
I contacted AT&T and they said there is no way to do it.
I did read that if your call comes in using a Google Grand Central number you can transfer it using Grand Central specific codes.
Later, Lew

Yes, it's a "feature" that your Phone Provider must support in order to use it.
I get "cannot conference calls".
I know for a fact that the same sim when used in my old v v old ericsson r380 world phone allows me to conference multiple people.
but my kaiser (running stock) says the above message.
how can i conference calls? the phone looses part of its utility value if I am unable to use this feature. someone got any tips/ tricks for me?
p.s. i initiate both the calls...
conference call is not the same as call transfer!
You can start a conference as described by firstbuddha a few posts ago in this thread (you just shouldn't hang up if you want to stay in the conference). There's also a menu item for conference call.
If you use my method with pressing 4 and the green phone button you are trying to transfer a call which is only possible when your phone provider allows it.
Hey guys,
Is there a way to have tone (e.g. mp3) played for the person who is calling you before the phone is picked up? Let’s say someone is calling you and the TyTn 2 connects it instantly, but before I pick it up the TyTn 2 will play a small song?
If the above is not possible, is it then possible to have a different hold tone?
Sincerely,
Niklas
I know some phones can do it, my friend had his chocolate play a song, but i dont know if the Kaiser can do it. Also, im not even sure it "was" his phone, this may be a service provider option.
Is there really no program that can do the job? Basically just a small app that answers the call and plays a preconfigured mp3/wave.
Att has what you call answer tones. Only problem is that it's not free.

Hence the meaning of a call log...it tells you exactly who you called and when. I don't think there is a fix for this but you can always change the options in the menu to show you what you want....for example. Missed Calls, Outgoing Calls, ect....
I was quite annoyed with this in the beginning. On the original ATT dialer, if you press the d-pad down instead of going to call logs it will show you the last several calls before going to your contacts list. This is what I usually used when I was using this dialer. This in turn is compacting your call log to the calls the you dialed or just received.
Hope this helps
Few friends have told me that my voice muffles randomly when talking on the Kaiser TYTN II. At times during the call they cannot hear me clearly. This is during normal usage not speaker phone. In Speaker Phone mode this has been the problem as well like other people have reported. I am in UK / T MOBILE.

Check your signal level when they complain about muffled voice. Maybe your signal is too low in that area. If so, try some other radios and see if that helps.
I have a ATT 8925 with ATT WM6 ROM no bloatware. SPL 3.56 unlocked ect..
I have noticed I was getting alot of missed calls while im in a call. I tested and realized I dont have at alert tone when someone is calling me while im already in the middle of a conversation. I uninstalled the dialer I added and it didnt seem to help. The phone shows a window indicating a phone call is coming through but no sound.
When Im on bluetooth with the help of Voice Command it will announce the incoming call. However when Im just holding the phone to my ear I will never know who is calling.
What is the issue ? I have done some search and found some threads here about the tone being low or people want to change sound from "tut tut" to whatever.
Anyway i fixed the problem with Registry Editor
Somehow I must have set the Incall/Incall2/Incall3 Attenuation to 0 which silent all notification sounds during a phone call.
Adjusted it to setting 5 and now the call waiting tone is way loud. Never missed a call waiting ever again
