I'm facing the same issue with my nexus 4 which I bought for getting Ubuntu Touch working on this device. Due Hotspot is an essential feature for me I former thought of switching to an Android based Image despite I really like the way Ubuntu-Touch works. Additionally I'm now used to its Gesture-Based interface. Then I heard that Hotspot is coming via OTA-6 and I rather waited, instead of newly flashing the device. Too bad that is still not working on my device then.
If this feature will be a "won't fix for mako", I see no other Chance to regret the further Usage of Ubuntu Touch, which would make me really sad but is then without any alternative for me :-( -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1434591 Title: [mako] Cannot connect to a secure, shared "ap" hotspot Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: $ system-image-cli -i current build number: 138 device name: mako channel: ubuntu-touch/devel-proposed alias: ubuntu-touch/vivid-proposed last update: 2015-03-17 15:04:46 version version: 138 version ubuntu: 20150317.1 version device: 20150210 version custom: 20150317.1 I have tried most types of security, but the spec [2] says for maximum compatibility, most of the options should be left blank. Blank settings failed on both a and bg bands. How to reproduce: 1. Create a secure hotspot (I am using this [1] script) 2. Confirm that the hotspot is active and appears secured for other devices What happens: Connecting to it fails. What should have happened: Connecting to it should not fail.
