How to enable bluetooth transfer mobile to mobile?
I just got a 8550 black cherry chocolate phone and I cant bluetooth my files off of my unlocked v3i. I know that verizon disables this function, but how do I hack it to enable it to work.

you can't, use bitpim, transfer them to the PC from the V3
then use bitpim & bt or a usb cable to move the files to the correct folders on the chocolate
all music and pix & videos for the card can be done via external card reader or via cable usb mass storage mode
those are best ways to move everything but ringers, for those you need bitpim
NO BT mobile to mobile

Phone to Phone bluetooth requires Bluetooth Object Push Profile (aka OPP).
On the Chocolates, Verizon didn't include that profile. So there is no way to Hack it to enable it to work... i.e. can't turn on something that isn't there.. and to ADD a feature, the firmware itself would need some re-coding done to it... something we can't do.

On the V3C, the bluetooth OBEX FTP profile was on the phone, but disabled. We could do a "Seem Edit" to enable it. But the V3C didn't support OBEX OPP.
The only way to get OPP on a Verizon V3C is to cross flash to another carrier's firmware. The necessary firmware files are not available for the LG phones...
