Grab a newer version and look into the documentation. I found a new
message "Get call status" some months ago. I don't know it is working
or not with this phone, you have do some experiment yourself. Please
let us know the result.

The "old" call commands (0x7c) aren't able to handle parallel calls,
and its ability is quite limited. The new ones (the "Call Information
commands") gives more power to control the calls. Until we discovered
the get call status message we tought the 3210/3310 phones don't
support the call info messages. Currently I think these phones are
supporting the improved API but the support is more similar to the
7110 than a 6110. I have no such phone, so I cannot confirm this
idea. If you manage to find out something, please let us know.

The authentication is for 5110/6110 only. The 3210/3310 phones don't
support auth, so you needn't to implement it.
