You must have done something that disabled it in your file settings other than that I dont know have you damaged it in any way? Have you downloaded any other non market content?

Yeah it's definitely winamp. I had it installed and had the same issue. Instantly disappeared as soon as I uninstalled it.
It is a feature of Winamp. The automount may be toggled on/off from inside Winamp's settings.

Check in your About Phone and make sure you did get the JI6 update. That was supposed to fix the "known Issue" when i was talking with the tech support at TMO. Of course, i was running a third party rom and couldn't get the update so i flashed Bionix 1.9.1 which had the update built in and have been good since. If that doesn't work or if you DO have the update and still having the issue have them send a replacement as it is a defect and they will send a new one.
I had to exchange my phone, tmobile explained to me that its an issue with some phones and cannot be fixed so they sent me a replacement phone. I would one click unroot and exchange your phone. That is what I had to do.
Hi.. Thank you all for your response.. Is it possible to fix it if I flash it with a new ROM? Or is it becuse of hardware issue? I am waiting for a Froyo ROM to flash it. Would it fix the problem?
Thanks

Wow I wish my battery was that good...
Try repartitioning with stock ROM in ODIN. It seems to solve a lot of issues, but it will wipe your internal SD.
I have this same problem and I have had no luck fixing it with ANYTHING! I tried ODIN so many times and its always the same issue...
Moved to Q&A.
any body have fix usb connected ?
i've done all which is writes around the internernet after reading 400+ web site threads/posts still not able to solve, Please if anybody have done please share with us

[Q] "Wi-Fi sharing" and Wi-Fi sharing manager"? Not needed for normal WiFi usage?

[Q] "Wi-Fi sharing" and Wi-Fi sharing manager"? Not needed for normal WiFi usage?
I find these 2 "Wi-Fi sharring" things running usually.
Sometimes they even rank quite highly in battery usage.
But I only use WiFi as a normal client for internet access, never for tethering, so I can stop those "WiFi sharing" processes?
Did Samsung/Android unintentionally mix up the naming of processes?
Has any one else ever seen "Wi-Fi sharing" rank highly in battery usage, even though he/she only uses WiFi for the phone's own internet access?
I have this exact same problem with the Wi-Fi sharing running in the background & draining my battery completely!! Still haven't switched over completely to this phone yet because of this & really hoping I can find a fix for it.
I've seen this mentioned in other threads but most of them talk about rooting the phone to achieve the solution.
Is there any other option for stock users? I can't believe Samsung would expect everyone to do that!!!
It's driving me insane. The battery is completely dead by the mid day! Thankfully I haven't completely switched over from my trusty Desire HD just yet. But am aching to use the SGS2 if there's an easy fix for this.
Anyone have a solution that doesn't involve rooting the phone?
Big thanks in adavance and apologies if this has been discussed already but all the threads I found only involved rooting.
Cheers,
AndroidFreud.

What exactly did you remove & how?
Also does this remove any other functionality that you may need later on?

Wifi sharing comes up once every time I stop charging it. (takes 30 min before it starts) I kill it once and it does not reactivate until I next charge the phone.

you can remove it using titanium backup.
these 2 have no effect on the rest of the regular wifi functionality.its for connecting to the pc through WIFI.
they will appear as long as the WIFI is on
you can use titanium back up to back it up and remove them. in case you will need it you can restore it.so theres no harm. try it.
hope that i helped with it
hi, just to check. Does installing titatium backup means i've to root my phone?

So there's no way of fixing this on a stock Rom unless I go for root!?!?!
Possible with My Backup Pro?

I tried checking to see if there were any software updates for the first time and after.signing up all it's saying is connection failed!

Flashing my firmware to KF3 fixed this for me.
Previously I was on KE7, and had this problem.
I flashed KG1 and this is not an issue at all anymore either. If you don't feel like flashing, you can use Titanium and freeze both the sharing and sharing manager with no side effects from what I can tell. I am assuming wi-fi sharing would be convenient if you could share between two mobile devices using wi-fi but not if its a bug as it was in earlier firmware builds.
I used Titanium Backup to freeze those 2 apps. Very glad to hear that the KG1 does not have this issue anymore.

I did the same too.
Apologies, I'm a noob to this. I understood using titanium backup would mean you would have to have root. Is this not correct?
I've only recently got this phone & am on the stock rom. I'd prefer not to root a it would void my warranty.
Is flashing any different? I also have a desire hd & haven't had to deal with any of that. How would I go about it?
Sorry again for all the noob questions. Any help at all would be appreciated.

Well, you might lose the warranty if you are not using a tiny jig . The point is that you can flash custom roms / kernels, etc as much as you want, and if you brick you phone, just insert the jig and everything goes back to normal. But you will have to flash the stock rom / kernel though. But if you want root (more acces to your device) you can do it without changing f/w or anything else. Is good to have root especially for titanium backup imo. With paid version of this app you can even freeze things you don't use everyday or anything else (e.g. wifi sharing).
(sorry for the bad english, but I hope I was helpful)
Thanks for the quick reply.
What's a 'tiny jig'? And do you have any link on how to go about flashing? Will also do a quick search on this. Thanks again.
I'm just finding it incredible that Samsung would expect their users to go this route instead of via an update?! Arent any other users experiencing this?
I tried updating through About Phone> Software updates> but it always says connecting and then connection failed so have not been able to see if that works.
Thanks again for all the help.
UPDATE: Ok did a little searching and came across this which answers most my noob questions. Going to try it out.
Here's the link in case anyone else had the same questions

You can also search xda to find how to do anything to your phone . This is the "tiny" jig
Ok so that method earlier mentioned apparently will void the warranty so I'm back to square one again.
So has anyone out there been able to fix this on a stock rom? Anyone who got an official update from samsung that actually fixes it?
Everyday I return home to a completely battery drained phone. Not sure how good this is for the battery life. desperately need help here!

hi, copy all text of URL and paste, then delete space between "09/" AND "HTC-"... I had to place it there because I am new here and I cannot post links.
And other question: I had on my stock ROM htc widgets: battery status and Notes. Now, I cannot find them in HTC hub. And some apps I can't find in market - like skype for example. BTW: there is written "installed" on web market, but some of these apps are not in the phone.
And the last problem... (I hope) ... I have experienced some restarts without obvious reason. Is that caused by OC? Should I flash "1,2GHz script" or wait a few days if it stops :? ... Thanks for answers )

I saw the picture. You can probably call your Rom developers to put it in.
Use "market enabler" to fake t-mobile provider, then open market again, you will have it.
OC will cause those problem. Try to run lower clock. And unstable kernels may lead to those problem too.

Cannot find it = your Rom developer removed it. Ask him to make a flashable zip to add it back.
Download market enabler, go to setting, long press tmobile, press fake now. Then go market and find Skype, it should be there.

[Q] Android 2.3.3 application issue

Hello, everyone!
I am new to Android and to this forum, so someone please give me a step-by-step solution to the following issue:
I have a Goclever i102 netbook (it's basically a tablet with a keyboard). It runs on Android 2.3.3, kernel 2.6.35.8, build GRI40. The problem with it is that when I try running some apps (including the media player and the file explorer - "My Pad"), they just turn on for a second (enough to see the title bar) and then instantly turn off. I also tried resetting to factory settings, but that didn't solve the problem.
I would try anything (even upgrading OS if necesary).
Please someone tell me how to solve this issue by myself...
Thanks in advance!
Did you try looking in Settings->Applications for a compatibility mode option for specific apps?
Sent from my E3D
There's no "compatibility settings" anywhere in the applications settings... Anyway, as I said, I did a factory reset... so there are no user applications installed.
Open the application's settings (Settings->Applications->Manage) and clear the data.
Done that... Nothing changes
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions &

Did they work earlier perhaps they are just I some way incompatible with your tablet.If you give me a logcat from the point of opening the app to the point of it disappearing I may be able to help.

I just bought it three days ago from someone else and he said he didn't notice anything unusual but I'm not sure that he did use those apps or that maybe he was the one who broke them...
About incompatibility... that makes no sense because they come preinstalled with the netbook... For the moment I tried installing other apps that do the same stuff and they work, but I would still like to find a solution to this problem.
Oh... and about that logcat... how do I find it?

Logcat is a system activity log .To get it you need a android sdk and adb.Connect your phone with debugging. Run ddms and then under device click logcat and save it to a file during the time I. described above

[Q] Instagram blocked my device

Hi!
I have a problem.... Instagram have blocked my device. Not my account, because I can log in to it from other devices or via the web, but I can not login using my device or even create any other accounts...
I have rooted S3 with 4.1.2... But I don't want to reset my device to try if that works... I don't even know if that would work?
On iOS there is an option of chaining some kind of keychain file... is there something similar on Android? or there is other options?

After signing out, you must do the same thing when you need to sign in with other account or other one or creat new one... as soon as you pres sign in button- clear RAM and then sign in.
at the moment it`s the only solution I found, but have not been seeking for the option to find the file which is responsible for the info about the violetion.

still I'm really curious where instagram get's the information about being blocked from, since I changed my Android ID, even created a new Googleaccount and reset everything. The app "LBE Privacy Guard" says Instagram doesn't check the IMEI, but I'm not sure about that.

Now, I have solution about this after instagram make me confuse for a couple of weeks.
I tried this on my Android Device (SGrand2), just install app called IMAGINE for Instagram. You can google it. Or i recommend to download from onhax web with search keyword "imagine". (sorry i still can't post link)
Once installed you can login from that app not from instagram official app. And the good news, you also get some new features there.
Thanks! Hope it can solve your problem.
And don't forget to follow my ig @denny.ri
