I'm on STF-L09 8.0.0.364 and everyday I use mobile hotspot with no problems. Few days ago I tried to use Device List feature to allow only Allowed Devices to connect on my hotspot. After trying this, my PC and iPad couldn't connect anymore to my hotspot. The network appears by default but iPad shows "wrong password" and PC shows "Can't connect to this network". I went back to last configuration but with no success. I have already tried to change network name, password and authentication type but none of the attempts worked. Does anyone have an idea of what to do or know a way to get the mobile hotspot settings back to the original?
Same here.
For no reason wifi hotspot stopped working.
I tried to reset network parameters, to switch between wifi 5GHz and 2.4 GHZ (as found elsewhere), no result.
I installed last update (STF-L09 8.0.0.368), but hotspot still not working, can't connect any device to it.
Any clue ?
Dear User,
again go to hotspot>> device list>>select allow devices to "connect as all devices". Then disable and re-enable hotspot and again try to connect, try to reconfigure wifi in ur ipad, laptop and all. its working tried as u said with my device
I did that once, didn't work. I did it 2 or 3 times more, then it finally worked !
Hotspot is really instable : after some minutes of use, I had to do this again .
But thanks for your help.
It seems like enabling and disabling the Device List turns the Hotspot working back. But every time I want to use Hotspot, I need to do it again. The functionality really is unstable.

Running stock, clean install of .12. My Hotspot (which I do pay for, so that isn't the issue) isn't behaving at all. The phone is broadcasting the network and devices can authenticate, but they're not being routed to the Internet once they're in. "Limited connectivity" or "No Internet" statuses on my PC, lack of IP config details on my iPod/Pad.
I called VZW support last night and the guy had me shut the phone off, then he reset something on his end and had me turn it back on again. For an evening it ran like a top. Today I'm right back where I sarted. It *can* work, it just isn't.
Interestingly, when I run Mobile Hotpot, it gives no indication of trouble, but in the Tethering & mobile Hotspot menu in Settings, when i run the Hotspot, I get "Error" showing up in there. Doesn't say what kind of error, no detail/debugging, just "Error."
To recap:
ICS .12, stock
WiFi network ok, Routing not (apparently)
"Error" in settings when Hotspot is on.
Only thing I've seen that sounds anything like this was an APN issue on a different carrier's ICS phones post-update. I'm stumped at this point and like my odds better here than I do calling Verizon again...
I am having the same problem after OTA ICS, I can turn my hotspot on and it says connected to 1 device (my laptop) and when I try to connect to the wifi it takes a while and says "limited connection" and will not work. If I go to my mobile settings it says hotspot...error. usb tethering (internet connection mode) still works but the wifi hotspot doesnt at all, I thought they were supposed to fix this!
Hi all,
I have a problem while connecting to WiFi hotspot feature. I have Feravolt v3 JB rom, Ferakernel.
I am able to activate the Wifi hotspot feature in the phone and its broadcasting fine until I try to connect from my laptop's wireless adapter. The SSID is detected in the wireless networks and when i try to connect, it acquires the ip address and as soon as I get the message 'wireless connected', the phone LED color changes and the phone reboots. I tried both pdanet+ and also the hotspot feature in the rom. both times the phone restarts. I did factory reset and tested hotspot feature before installing any other apps. still the same result. I also tried keeping the phone charged while connecting to hotspot. No luck. I am able to do usb tethering, reverse tethering without any problem. I did not overclock. Just using default settings that came with the rom. disabled sleep policy, kept the screen always on......
My only guess is that might be battery problem and if so any idea how to overcome this problem without buying a new battery.
Anyone had similar problem before or its a first?
Appreciate if someone can guide me if I need to enable or disable any feature.

I just bought Honor 7 PLK-L01 with B170, and already face a problem. The thing is, when I turn it on first time, and setup the connections, I can see wifi hotspots or routers, but honor 7 can't connect to them, it just says "saved" or something. I thought it was router problem, then I just skip it. Then I turned the wifi off in honor 7, but when turn it back on, none of the hotspots or routers shows up. It says "Scanning..." and the little circle turns around, but never found a wifi hotspot. It can transfer files thru Share It, and it uses wifi to do it. I'm using my other device as hotspot to use internet, and there are many routers nearby, but it can't find any...
I tried Add network... and type my hotspot name and password, but nothing happened...
Somehow creating wifi hotspot from Honor 7 works... I can connect to it, but not other around...
In Data traffic management, there's Mobile hotspot, where I can choose wifi network as hotspot, not even that fixed my problem...
I found a way: Reset my phone, removing sim and sd-card tray, turn it on, connect to wifi... But when I connect the tray, wifi goes down again...
It's either sim-card or sd-card... Without them works fine too...
I found out that I just need to update my firmware to B330, then it should fix the problem, I hope...
Yep, it does fix the wifi by updating to Emui 4.0
Hi,
I suggest that before the update worked perfectly.
After updating the wifi tethering does not work anymore.
In practice, the other device connects but does not navigate.
I noticed that with tethering connected and connected device if I disconnect the data and reconnect them, the connected device navigates but no longer surf the phone.
To be able to surf the phone I have to disable the router and disconnect and reconnect the data.
It's as if either surfing one or the other.
I have already reset my factory data.
My sim has no tethering block.
I've already tried to change APN (default - default,dun - default,supl,dun).
The same problem also in safe mode.
Can someone help me?
Thanks
Hi all,
i've got this big problem and i dunno how to solve it.
Stock rom, MIUI 12.0.3, no root, developer options active.
I ran into this annoying bug months ago, while trying to get my car's android auto working with my phone without using usb cable.
I managed to connect my Mi 8 lite with the car via wifi connection; made it enabling Android Auto developer options (otherwise it wolud let me connect only with cable). Unfortunately once connected everything doesn't work, because there is no data: while wifi is on AND connected, my phone doesn't "want" to use my mobile data, even if i force data use by setting "mobile data always on" option in developer options.
I noticed this is not a problem of my car's infotainmnet, infact it happens also if i connect my phone to my wifi network unplugging phone's line cable (and so internet data ) from my router. Also in this case, with phone mobile data always active, my phone will stay connected to my wifi (which has no internet) and won't use my mobile data.
Does anyone have any idea/suggestion or know what i'm doing wrong?
Thx in advance for reading
