WiFi Hotspot not working after JB update :(

So, as the title says, the WiFi Hotspot feature isnt working after the Jelly Bean update Crying_Face I have rebooted the phone several times, including cold reboot, holding down power & volume up, but its still not working. I have also tried using a different network names and passwords, but still nothing. I was perfectly able to use the hotspot feature before the JB update, used it everday to connect to my tablet.

All other features work so far on my phone, tho i havent tried the walkman app.

Please fix....please :smileygrin:

OK, I've fixed it!

Used FlashTool64 and the firmware download from here. It's version 9.1.A.1.140 and tethering now works.

Sooo happy to have tethering back! One thing tho, there has to be right! I accidentally deleted the mms settings, so i probably cant receive picture texts, well, i say that, i havent tried yet, no bother tho.

I've got the same problem. I have heard that Android 4.4.3. fixes the issue!
In between are there any fixes with the settings of the phone? I don't really want to root the phone as it revokes the warranty.
Keep positive!
