[racemepls]

Why why why would it give you the option when you cant do it?

I hink it means by bluetooth.. not IR

[chappy]

Beam refers to bluetooth.

I know but you still have to open a bluetooth connection

Both phones have to have BT on and set to see each other. Same as adding a BT headset.

Not necessarily. OBEX allows this without a hard pairing. You just need to have your receiving device discoverable. Both phones/devices must support OBEX. The built-in beam via Bluetooth sends files via this protocol. WM also supports OBEX receive, which will alert you in the event that someone attempts to send you data via BT OBEX.

1st, make sure both phones have BT on and visible. then make sure the beam is checked on both phones.
Now, from one device, tap "add new" under BT settings, that phone should find the other and tell you, it's device name. click on their device name and set a passkey. the discovered device will prompt that its being requested for pairing and ask that user(you) for a passkey. enter same passkey and it should be good to go. Sorry for the long instructions.
