between the two callers, or set up a conference call between all three
parties.
1. Tap Answer to take the second call, and put the first one on hold.
2. To end the second call and return to the first call, tap End or
press End on the device.

To set up a conference call

second incoming call when you already have one in progress.

Note Not all service providers support conference calling. Contact your
service provider for details.
