Samsung S3 asks for mobile data when I try to receive using ShareIt A friend has Samsung S3 phone. Whenever he tries to activate receiving using Lenovo ShareIt, a pop up message raises asking to activate mobile data. Even after enabling mobile data, the WiFi spot is not created if mobile data is not connected.


Is it a firmware problem, that the phone can't enable WiFi spot without mobile data active?
Is there any fix or a workaround to make it works?
Seems to be Samsung specific problem as you can see Samsung S 3
and Samsung S4
There is no solution I could see on internet.
