So there is nothing i can do about it? If i turn on JCE there is no problem in uploading from the frontend but i like the k2 image tab more.

JCE is a different extension. K2 media manager is always set to read-only mode when used in front-end.

Ok then, that makes the k2 image tab totally useless in front end. Thanks for the support.

if you really like to add this feature (like i did)

open file:
/administrator/components/com_k2/controllers/media.php

search for: (around line 71)

			// Read only access for front-end. Full access for administration section.
			switch($attr)
			{
				case 'read' :
					return true;
					break;
				case 'write' :
					return ($mainframe->isSite()) ? false : true;
					break;
				case 'locked' :
					return ($mainframe->isSite()) ? true : false;
					break;
				case 'hidden' :
					return false;
					break;
			}

		}

		if ($mainframe->isAdmin())
		{
			$permissions = array(
				'read' => true,
				'write' => true
			);
		}
		else
		{
			$permissions = array(
				'read' => true,
				'write' => false
			);

change to:

			// Read only access for front-end. Full access for administration section.
			switch($attr)
			{
				case 'read' :
					return true;
					break;
				case 'write' :
					return ($mainframe->isSite()) ? true : true;
					break;
				case 'locked' :
					return ($mainframe->isSite()) ? true : true;
					break;
				case 'hidden' :
					return false;
					break;
			}

		}

		if ($mainframe->isAdmin())
		{
			$permissions = array(
				'read' => true,
				'write' => true
			);
		}
		else
		{
			$permissions = array(
				'read' => true,
				'write' => true
			);

Remember, this is a hack, i have not checked anything in safety and security, use it for your own risk.
