I hate Samsung and their dumb software design choices, and this is one of them. Why do I need a SIM card to enable a hotspot whereas every other phone works without one?

This phone is broken (broken screen) and was given to me, so I figured I'd use it as a WiFi extender, but I guess I can't.
You're viewing a single thread.
I find it hard to believe all your other phones could do this as it required dual antennas.
If you just want a local network with DHCP and WPA to do whatever, no uplink is necessary.
Totally useless for 99.999% of users (not even exaggerating). Would be nice to have the option though but would mostly just confuse users with was would appear to most to be a totally useless option.
It is useful for LAN games so not 99.999% but more like 90%
Maybe 90% back in the good ol' days 🥲
So is ADB, and Bluetooth tethering, and wired Ethernet, and OTG,...
This can be solved with a warning like "You are not connected to the internet, hotspot will only allow access within local network."
And then you get a billion tickets about why you get that message when you tey to tether to your phone for Internet access
Yeah but he said wifi extender.
