I am not sure you need to freeze it. I had a rooted Arc before, and used Android Assistant to stop apps like this starting up. The real benefit of it is you can block all the listeners' every app and service has. The listeners are what makes it pop back up again when you have killed it (like WiFi sharing does, and &*^% Social Hub & Buddies!).
Used with the start up kill as well, you have a clean fast start, more RAM, and more battery. The price is zilch too, although I recommend buying it just to support it. What's not to like?
Edit: It is autorun that stopped things loading, and listening to events. Android Asst just prevents loading on boot.

Install Titanium Backup or AntTek App Manager and freeze it/them. I've done it myself.

And how to do it with antek application manager

1. You must be rooted of course
2. Open the app and hit the "Apps" tab
3. Search for "Wi-Fi Sharing Manager" and "Wi-Fi Sharing"
4. Tap on it/them and choose "Freeze"
5. Done!

Thank you very much

Is this the only way to get rid of this? I think this is also the case for my bad battery performance as well. So, no way to stop it or kill it without 3rd party software?

Nope, it's a system process, so you'll need root to freeze/delete or do anything about it. If you kill it manually using a task manager the process with start again within seconds.

How long should it take? I'm using Titanium Backup-Pro, been sitting on "freezing Wi-Fi Sharing manager 1.0" for over 5 minutes.

Sorry noob questions, but...
What is the benefit to freeze those apps?? What is its purposes? What would be the cons?

When you freeze an app with Titanium (or some other system app manager), the system doesn't see it anymore. It's still there, but out of action until you defrost it.
It's a useful feature to experiment with temp shutting down of system apps - if you see that something is wrong, you defrost it, and everything's fine.
If you uninstall it, OTOH, if something bad happens, you're stuck.

If you mean "why freeze those particular apps?", then the answer is that if they are not used, they are just wasting battery and RAM by running. This is true of a large number of built-in apps that Samsung, and indeed carriers, put on your phone for you.
These particular ones serve no purpose for 90% of users [sorry, needed for Kies air, disregard], so are best stopped. Even if you do use them, they are best prevented from starting up until you want to use them.

freezing wifi sharing and wifi manager will cause kies air not working. unless you never used kies air and planning to freeze it too then i think it should be ok

I want to ask WHAT THE HELL IS THAT WIFI SHARING APP?! How can it be so badly done... I mean it's killing battery as once launched it never stops. I just can't get it...

And that's why we freeze/remove it If you don't use Kies, then get it over with and kill it (the permanent way)

Fact is, after i froze them (all social hub) wifi sharing came and freezing it didn't change anything, it was still running from boot!

Freeze both wifi sharing and wifi sharing manager.
It will not come back after boot. Tested on 2 S2s and a Note.

I use Autorun manager to disable all the 'listeners' that these apps have (one is for boot). This is in many ways better because I can still use them by actually running them, but they do not start by themselves.

Search function in apps not working

Hi

you may have disabled Google search or similar
but the thing is the apps you tested have independent search system, so I think it is something else

Thats the way android works
But they dont actually drain your battery

You could try freezing them apps using titanium backup I think.
Respect!

i know freezing but i will use them when necessary during day. There is lots of custom rom on android. I think this should not impossible

if you are talking about the startup items.. use something like autostarts which can effectively manage them

This is a must have App-- System Cleanuphttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.SystemCleanup.Inteks.org

It's a very powerful App and you should use caution with it but it's definately a must have .

System Cleanup won't . It's manual . Although one of it's great benefits for the inexperienced is that it tells you what is safe to delete and what isn't.
AS to the othe 2 appto sd apps I don't know sorry .I would be very suprised if they were as it's not wise to just shove everything to the sd card.You would find the phone start up sluggish , important widgets would be missing etc etc.

who knows a tool for direct switch from 2g and 3g

Yeah it seems like such a pointless addition. But you can try freezing with TB or something.

Any reason you need to remove it? It looks like it's just making the Google settings more open and easier to access.

I like to remove useless apps.
Especially when they get secretly installed.
It's crap in my eyes.
Thx. for replying everyone.

So there is no way to remove it? Because I can't find it in TiBu and it bother me it's there. I'll never use it.

Seems you get it, when Playstore is updated.
Green icon in app drawer.
I don't need it or want it.
Can't remove it or freeze it
Sent from my LT30p using xda app

try uninstalling play store updates see if that removes it .... if so you can disable updates through TB i think?

Did that already and that works.
But there will be a next update I guess..

remove google settings app
For those of you who prefer not to be sheep going to slaughter.
I unistalled google play services and that removed it from the phone. Not sure what else will be affected but I am still able to download/install apps from play store. I figure I may miss the next version of play store that comes out. Better than them sneaking stuff in. You may find the actual apk inside the google play directories. Please post if you do.
Also if anyone has ever figured out how to disable E911. If you dont want to disable yours that fine. STFU because your input is not needed ok. I dont want it on, period!!!
For the rest go ahead and follow the heard. [sheep noises....lol] !

Google Play Store and Goggle Play Services are not related. But it was a clever move with the names.
Google Play Services are the core to a host of future functions, especially to apps relating to social contacts, location related services and in particular (paid) games playing. Also, as many have detected already, with the 3. party sign-in control Google is able to watch and possibly control to whom and how you have contact with.
If you de-install Google Services, it will be auto re-installed in shortest time again in the backgound. If you happen to be on mobile data at that time, the bill is on you. If you disable or freeze Google Play Services, it will not be auto re-enabled. At least not as of now. But some functions of the phone and some Google apps like Hangout are made dependant on Goggle Play Services. So there function will cease.
More and more people are disgruntled about the way Google is doing things now. It is absolutely Googles own thing what apps they want to develop, and what functions they want to implement. But shoving down apps onto my property without my consent is not acceptable to me.
The people are not sheeps bcs they are forced to have things installed things they don't fully understand. I believe that many simply don't think twice, if something is (superficially) free, The strategies of companies like Goggle build on that fact.

Yep, it reinstalled. I will freeze it. But the sheep are the people that say one should accept it, or come back with tin foil comments etc. Those are sheep. I agree why force it on people? Esp from software the is supposed to be opensource. As one person posted somewhere it also redundant.

I know what you mean and I share your resentments. Albeit I fear there is nothing much we can do.
Google makes more and more Android functions depend on Google Play Service being on, and up to date. Just recently I registered that Calendar synchronisation now does not work with this "Services" disabled.
Unless someone makes a hacked version of that skunk.
