Default Transfer a bluetooth call to phone

Too lazy to read manual.

How do you transfer a bluetooth call to the phone while on the call.

Is there a quick way or do you have to punch through a number of screens - and run into the car in front of you.

I know that it transfers automatically if you turn the car off to get out. (I used to think you'd always have to sit in the car until the end of the call, or ask the person to call you back in 10 seconds.)

It sound like you want to transfer it into a private mode while driving... sorry, I'm no help there.

Bump for you.

There is usually a selection on your phone to drop the bluetooth connection and activate the handset. On my Blackberry I think it shows up on the menu if you click the side wheel.

Thats correct. When youre on a call, if youre below 5 MPH, a button marked Transfer Call will show up on the screen. If you press it, it will put the call back on the handset.

So, it shows up automatically or do I need to be in a certain area of the nav screen?

On my Treo Pro and other Windows Mobile-based phones I've used, you just hit the menu button and choose Turn off Handsfree.

If you use the 'unlock' trick, will this button be available all the time?

It shows up automatically but you have to be on the screen which shows the current phone call. The screen that shows up when you're on a call.

And again, it button only shows up when youre below 5 MPH.
