I tried switching on portable WiFi hotspot on the android device, connect ur WP to the same hotspot & then send em via shareit. It was successful.

There is a bug in the app. Error while receiving from android. If you want to try just switch on the internet sharing in your windows phone and connect the android phone using Wi-Fi then your windows phone is visible in the android phone but you cant receive because of the bug..

Create hotspot on the android device and connect to it on your windows phone.. It will definitely work that way!
