The Samsung Galaxy III with Verizon (same with any Samsung on Verizon) won't allow you to release the second party once you merged 2 calls. It also won't allow you to initiate another 3-way call, even if one of the people in your conference hung up and you're only connected to one person.
Once you merged 2 calls, your only option is to end the call which will end both calls.
Samsung on AT&T and TMobile do have the option very easily on-screen.
Though in many forums people suggest its a CDMA versus GSM issue, its not, as all Verizon 4G phones are on the CDMA network and it can be done on other brands like Motorola,
(Tho it's not an on-screen quick option on the Motorola, do the following after you merged the 2 calls: click home, people/contacts, tiny phone icon at the bottom, and then the green phone icon, which disconnects second party without ending the entire call and you can then even initiate another 3-way call). On any Samsung with Verizon, this option wont work. The combination of Samsung and Verizon have eliminated the good old "send" feature that lets you hang up the third party plus have your phone free to continue making another conference call.
I've read somewhere it can be done by doing the following:
"Root your phone and flash cm9 or 10, The dialer on this rom will allow it" (from reading many many posts, i don't feel too happy with trying cm10). (I'm not even sure if he meant i would stil need a special dialer or once its rooted the phones dialer will let me hang up the second party and/or make another conference call)
Has anyone tried solving this problem with rooting successfully? (or any other method), if so please specify what ROM etc, I'm a newbie but relying a lot on 3-way calling. maybe I'm too naive and rooting alone even without flashing would solve this?

I'd love to know as well, I'm having the same issue on my Verizon Galaxy S3. Like you said, the Razr HD can do this with no problem, and every other s3 and note 2. Whats the deal? Can the dialer be added from anther carrier phone? Will the AOSP dialer do the job?

It's my understanding after reviewing the thread that wifi calling or native WiFi calling is not possible with AT& T and this device??
Can any other AT & T users please comment on workarounds that you have found?.
I understand that you can use Skype or Hangouts dialer to make calls over WiFi if you're out of cellular service but the problem seems to be what happens when you get incoming calls or if you need calls to go to voicemail. What's your setup?
I currently have an AT & T branded device Samsung and I have native WiFi calling but I hate that I don't have any options for custom roms Etc.
Just trying to make some decisions. Thanks
You are correct. With root you can enable VoLTE with a magisk module. But it's well documented and I can personally testify, that unless a device had at&t firmware or is an iPhone you will not get VoWiFi.. it's the dumbest thing every and I wish the FCC would somehow punish at&t for it... But so goes it.. hit em where it hurts and switch to T-Mobile. No issues there.
Hangouts
If you use Hangouts calls coming in will go to voicemail. You get an email to the acct associated with your google#. Then download the voice file in the email and play. I use wifi calls a lot cause I'm on the T-Mobile 100 minute, 5 gig $30. Plan. Wife's on it also:good:
Hey OnePlus fam,
I just thought I would put this out as PSA for anyone on Verizon and having issues with SMS or MMS, as there is little information out there on this for our specific phones.
If you are unable to send or receive any text messages it is most like that the "CDMA-Less" feature needs to be activated.
You can call Verizon and ask them to enable "CDMA-Less" to your account.
Hope this helps
I had to get a new sim card that fixed my problem
Here are also a few links too; the first two are for a 6T but to concept still applies.

VZW information

Had the same issue.
Called Verizon and asked them to enable this device as CDMA-less.
Been working perfect since.
Same here. I inserted my Verizon sim in the international version. Data at 50Mbps, Voice, Visual Voicemail and outgoing text messages worked. If it doesn't work for you, make sure you are using slot 1. It may matter. If you have a very old sim, you might need a new one.
I called Verizon and carefully explained that incoming sms was not functional as this was a next generation phone for a world where Verizon turns off their CDMA at the end of 2019 and SMS is routed over LTE. I instructed him to make sure "CDMA-less" was available both in the billing account and the network account. After a bit of digging he found the provisioning settings. Seconds after the phone was provisioned, sms started flooding in the stock message app. Also make sure IMS Basic Visual Voicemail is on your account if VM is giving you trouble. I use VZW Message+ (Verizon Messages) for sms as I can text from a PC also and it will restore previous sms.
By definition the phone uses VOLTE so there is no setting for HD Voice in the phone. That feature is required on your Verizon account but you would have to be switching from an ancient phone not to already have that. I cannot locate any option for Wifi calling and it does not work in airplane mode. I have a google voice number which allows Wifi calling. Interestingly it errors when the phone is in airplane mode but works when cell service is on. It reports "Wifi Call" and appears to use the stock dialer when initiated from the Voice app. Somehow Voice is even more tightly integrated with the stock dialer now than just trapping and routing international calls. This is a bug of sorts as my Moto phone on 8.0 could call in airplane mode with wifi on.
Google Duo appears to be integrated in the dialer but I haven't tried with my wife's Pixel to see if I can switch to Duo while on a regular voice call.
Bootloader unlock was simple: Tap Build # 6x, Developer Options - OEM unlocking, adb reboot recovery, fastboot oem unlock [This erases the phone]
The 7 Pro is an amazing device! Truly the most amazing. I'm really excited. The phone is super super slippery and a drop magnet. It does come with a TPU case.
I'm going to sell my kid's mint 5T and upgrade him too!
BT sucks worse than the Moto phone but I think that is an Android thing as my wife's pixel as issues to with her car. Contacts not syncing and calls not going through while connected to BT. Just have to do work arounds when I have some time.
Hoping video is fixed for the wide camera. They are amazing; but then, I'm coming from a Moto phone which has the worst cameras. Sony knows what they are doing.
Sorry to wake an old thread but did not want to start a new one.
I have verizon and have cdma-less provisioning done already. Have HD voice on the account as well. SMS works fine but I can only send MMS not receive them.
Ive tried moving sim card to other slot, tried reboot, tried factory reset, tried different apps...nothing.
The only time MMS fully works is when I am in safe mode. Anyone have any ideas on what it could be?
Thank you
Try looking in permissions at what app has permissions.
Try the Verizon message plus app

Permissions were all good, sms/mms permission is in one.
I tried verizon app, MMS works, dont really like the app though, and the customization didnt help me like it enough to keep it.
Super weird that verizon messages work but not the stock app or the Mood SMS app.

I had to call Verizon 2 or 3 times for them to get it right
I downloaded a couple other SMS apps and they all work fine. So leads me to believe its just something weird with the stock app and with Mood SMS. I will switch to QKSMS for now and requested assistance from Mood SMS so they could take a look. Thanks all.
I'm going to guess MMS didn't work with that app while you were on wifi? Some apps don't know how to route MMS data properly when there both data and wifi available.
It's an option that has to be enabled on the account for Verizon customers, it's the cdma-less option. It took me a couple representatives til one of knew what I was talking about lol
I think his issue is slightly different as he can recieve sms but not mms and it varies on the app he's using.

No that I already checked. I still have not figured out why I cannot receive MMS on the stock app or on mood SMS. Mood had not replied to my email. I switched to qksms and have no issues anymore.
So ya if anyone else runs into something like I did, try different SMS apps
Yup, I learned this very quickly when I got the OnePlus 6t. Just getting them to understand that the phone was certified on VZW. Then 4 techs before one knew what to do. I think they now can address quickly even over chat.

If I get Verizon prepaid will they be able to do this? I had Verizon prepaid once in the past and customer service was much worse than regular Verizon wireless. I am pretty sure that mvnos can't do it but I'm hoping Verizon prepaid can.

I'm not sure
Yeah, there's a lot more to this than enabling CDMA-less. Before about a month ago data/sms/MMS wasn't working on Android 10 based custom roms and MMS still doesn't work unless you use Messages+.
I get both fine I just have issues with them being received after the phone goes idle for a while. My issues are small stupid crap mile messenger not closing with home button all the time and and Gboard sometimes won't type into the field I'm in
I am on Verizon and have CDMA-Less profile enabled. However, my incoming calls (and some outbound calls) are often not working. What i mean by this is that I hear the person on the other end of the line as garbled noise, not necessarily static, but more just jumbled electronic noises. The other person says I sound fine. Hanging up and calling back doesn't resolve the issue. If i voice call over Duo it works. Running latest 9.5.11 and the update still didn't solve the issue. This doesn't occur all of the time, but it is more often than not.
I see no one has replied and my reply won't be much help but let you know I've had my OP7 pro since release on Verizon with no issues at all after the CDMA less setting. Possibly toggle on and off the air plane mode after it happens and try the call back. Just a shot maybe.
Try calling Verizon and get them to sync the account. There might be some configuration error on the billing/technical side. I've seen this work for a couple people who described the same issue you are currently having.
Just an update. I went to Verizon and had a new SIM installed. Did a couple test calls using the phones there without issue. Attempted calling my wife and issue sprung up again calling her S10+. Tested calling their S10+ in the store without issue. Tried calling wife again and had the same problem.
Later went to another Verizon store and could not duplicate the problem, but switched her SIM card anyway.
Did a little research on the S10+ and it seems the problem may be related the phone set to Global vs. LTE/CDMA. Changed her setting to LTE/CDMA and haven't had the issue happen. Calls also seem to sound better too when i call her.
Very strange all around.
Using the device on T-Mobile. Sometimes I'll just get a voice mail notification - without the phone ever ringing. Tested from a desk phone, and sure enough it goes right to voice mail without ever ringing. If I make a call outbound from the Zenfone 6, it will always work. Then I'm able to receive calls for an unknown amount of time. I can reboot and get calls after the reboot, but they will eventually randomly stop.
SMS also come though delayed by hours. For instance someone sends a SMS my way at 2pm, I'll get it at about 4pm. If I send a SMS out bound, I then instantly get all the inbound ones.
Anyone know if I need to whitelist something in battery optimization? So far the Zenfone isn't really good at being a phone. - great at everything else though.
Check your apn settings I think I had to update the default to whatever BYOD APN settings are for T-mobile see if it helps you
Also had this issue on T-Mobile. If APN settings don't fix it, I'd go to Auto-start Manager in Settings > Battery > PowerMaster and allow your messaging apps to run.
For me, I'd get SMS messages only when my screen was on, and some weren't received from contacts, like it shuts the apps off after not using them.
Same here. I'm about to switch providers because of this. What rom are y'all using? I'm on LineageOS 16. @wreid23 can you post your APN settings?
Tried unoptimizing all the messaging related apps, no effect.

So I found that if I turn off WiFi calls come right through. I don't know what the fix is, but I guess that's my work around.

I've found the same to be true for me. Wi-Fi connection prevents calls from coming in. I can dial out just fine.
This is extremely strange since this phone is not even Wi-Fi calling certified and it's not even a feature. This has been my biggest issue with the phone so far because you never know if you miss a really important call.

I purchased a OnePlus 7T for this reason. Can't use this device anymore after getting flack at work for missing and oncall issue due to the phone not ringing because I left wifi on.

Asus denies the phone could be the problem (despite the phone obviously being the only variable). I replied to that thread anyway, with my experience of similar lost calls on a Moto x4 with Wi-Fi calling enabled. Maybe it'll give some engineer at Asus a push in the right direction...
if any of you are rooted there is an alternative for now to enable volte and vowifi: https://forum.xda-developers.com/rog-phone-2/how-to/guide-enabling-volte-vowifi-v2-t4028073

I'm having the issue with T-Mobile 7T Pro, when I got the permanent unlock approval and switched to Mint Mobile sim is when calls went to voice mail, have you found a solution yet? Phone works fine if I use T-Mobile sim, but Mint Mobile sim in the 7T Pro is when the calls go to voice mail and text don't go out, if I put the Mint mobile sim into a Pixel XL all is fine. When I had to quit Mint Mobile becasue of this and go back to T-Mobile on prepaid again, all worked well.
The zenfone 6 is getting volte with the android 11 update so hopefully that fixes this issue
