When you say transfering files, what kind of files? I've found that I can't send pics from my T68i to friends nokia, but I can send phone numbers across IR.

i've only tried wallpapers because the t610 ringtones are a different format than the samsung ringtones... it says trying to connect.... then connection failed...

some mobile phone IRs are crippled unlike the Ericsson/Sony Ericsson's.
some mobiles require PC Suites or something like that to transfer pics or whatever into them. like Nokia Series 40 phones (6610, 7210, etc), they cant directly receive pictures via IR from SE phones.

Normally, you cannot send pictures or ringtones directly from one brand phone to another. Contacts are normally ok. You can send via MMS. Or another option, as ferrarista44 suggested, you will need some data suite software to transfer images from Phone to PC then PC to another phone.

I think, the reason why they do this is because of the different sizes of screens and pictures from one phone brand to another. At the same time, it also has to do with encrypting into the phone's memory.

Hope this helps.

701 is correct - Samsung phones use (to some extent) the MMF sound format. This type of files cannot be transfered to a phone that does not support it.

Make sure that the files you are trying to send have the .mid extension. Do not consider switching to USB: it's slower than IR because it uses emulation and may prove more difficult to set up. Bluetooth may be another option, but you'll need some experience or advice to use it as well. This message was posted from a WAP device
