Turning on HotSpot Causes My Phone to just Restart after Update

[SMatt2284]

My Hot Spot was working like normal on Friday afternoon. I did the latest update in evening & then later that night every time I would try to turn it on, it would just restart my phone. Does anybody have a fix for it...besides doing a complete restore?

There's no guarantee a factory reset will work.

It shouldn't be doing that and might be a problem with the update. You might have to wait for more updates.

Try all you want though. Maybe something will happen to work.

Hotspot really shouldn't be relied on however. Its not meant to replace normal ways.

What do you consider "normal ways"?
I use mine with my laptop when on the road. That seems very normal to me and to not have it work is very irregular.

That is a dumb a** response to give. Don't pay attention to it. Clearly they don't know what they are talking about. I hope Samsung fixes this issue asap. I need that hotspot for work myself.

Because of location of my home, I can't have wifi. I need the hotspot on my phone to use my internet on all my other devices in my home. Including my laptop for my kids schooling.

So Fyi to anyone with the same issue...I found that if i connect to a wi-fi nextwork then the HotSpot will connect. But once I disconnect from Wi-Fi it does the samething again.

That worked for me as well. Maybe the next update, they will have a fix?

Unfortunately I don't have wifi at my home because of our location. I tried just enabling wifi without connecting to an actual wifi connection then enabling my hotspot, but it still restarts.

Yes, my Samsung phone S10E also... after updating software. My Phone always restarting when trying to turn on Mobile Hotspot

My phone did an update this morning and now I can't use my hotspot
