Hotspot Keeps Shutting Off

[n0stalgia]

Since before the most recent update my hotspot has been turning off automatically and I've tried Resetting my Network Settings, Rebooting, Updating the System and restarting the phone and none of these have worked so far can anybody help solve the problem?

Mine turns off if nothing is connected to it....I have mine set in routines to connect to my android unit in car, turns on and off when headunit is turned on and off

I try to switch it on but it simply turns back off

Have you tried wiping cache partition....solves most issues 🤷

How would I do that on my A52 5G?

[rogersdave77]

Turn the phone off...then hold volume up and power key at same time, release when android appears...use volume down button to highlight wipe cache then power key to select....after a second or 2 it will ask to reboot, confirm with power key

That didn't work,
However what did work is switching it from 5GHz to 2.4GHz

Go to the mobile hotspot menu. Select configure. Select advanced. Change the selection under "turn off when no device connected for."
