Personal Hotspot missing on iPhone 5 after iOS 6.01

After updating my iPhone 5 to iOS 6.01 (had to apply a smaller update before this), I have now lost my Personal Hotspot setting.
Have restored twice from iCloud and from iTunes to factory defaults, but no luck.
I am on Vodafone UK contractions Vodafone swear that I still have tethering active on my account.
Anyone else experienced this?

I found that the network information was erased. I simply typed in the missing APN in cellular data and got the personal hotspot link back. The link used was  Settings --> General -->Cellular--> Cellular Data Network
This way all the old passwords for wi-fi connections remain intact.
The alternate way is to Reset cellular settings but this way all store wi-fi passwords will be erased.

  • Why missing personal hotspot  in my iphone 4s after upgrade ios 7 ?

    why missing personal hotspot  in my iphone 4s after upgrade ios 7 ?

    I'm having the same issue (iOS 7.0.3 on 5s).
    Had Sprint add Wi-Fi Hot Spot to my account today, went to set it up, and there's nothing in Settings for "Personal Hot Spot." Apparently it should appear underneath "Cellular" but it's just not there.
    Resetting network settings didn't help. And Sprint doesn't know why it's not there either.

  • I cannot use personal hotspot on my iphone 4 after update ios 7.1

    I cannot use personal hotspot on my iphone 4 after update ios 7.1. Please help me.

    The update may have caused a change in identification for the network. Also, you never answered if the network appears ready on the phone to share. You may have to reset the network, and forget the network on the iPod Touch and the computer before attempting to connect again.

  • Personal hotspot missing on iphne 4 after upgrading to IOS 5

    Since i upgraded my iphone 4 to IOS 5, the personal hotspot disappeared on the settings.
    can anybody help me how to fix this.

    Apple has not been forthcoming on the explanation. My Siri worked on my iphone4 (not 4s) immediately after upgrading to IOS5, but I take it they have redirected the servers that used to support Siri to only work with Iphone4s.
    It is one thing for apple to only bundle the improved Siri with IPhone 4S, or  for them to remove Siri from the Ap store.
    But it is another thing all together for apple to purchase a company, and then cease the service that many of us paid for.
    Attempts to contact apple at apple store and via email have been unhelpful.

  • Why can't I get a personal hotspot on my iPhone 5 with iOS 7

    I can't seem to get the personal hotspot that I paid for already on my phone. We have tried absolutely everything and so has our carrier which is sprint. They contacted apple and there is still no fix for it. This problem causes the personal hotspot not to show up under cellular in settings. What do I do??

  • Personal Hotspot for my iPhone 4 (32GB) is not available after updating to iOS 7.1, why is that so?

    Dear all, may I get a solution to solve the problem for my Personal Hotspot which is not functioning after updating to iOS 7.1?
    I am U Mobile user from Malaysia, before updating to iOS 7.1, everything seems to be fined.
    The problem only occurs after I have updated to iOS 7.1.

    Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
    Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)
    You can also try: Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings

    Verify that your carrier supports Personal Hotspot for your device and that you have Personal Hotspot enabled on your cellular plan:

    Do you pay for a tethering plan? This is a feature that has to be activated by your carrier and is generally NOT free.

    Not all cellular carrier plans support personal hotspot. If that isn't the issue, there may be something else in the following that will help: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2756

  • Personal Hotspot missing

    Hello
    I have the iphone 4 and the latest iOS 7.0.3 and the personal hotspot is missing from my iphone. I've tried resetting my iphone and it's still missing. Any ideas?

    Hey wjosten, you seem to know a lot about it, maybe you'll be able to give me a hand, or anybody's help would be welcome.
    I am experiencing the same issues as demi1123, I cant find personnal hotspot in my iPhone 4 on IOS 7.O.3?
    It doesnt appear in "Settings" and either in "Settings->Celullar". I've read that its supposed to be between "Data Roaming" and "CALL TIME". But I have nothing there.
    I tried everything I could:
    -reboot the phone
    -diseable/enable celullar data
    -ring my service provider to make sure it was activated (they ansered me that it was activated by default)
    -restore my iPhone through iTunes
    -press Home and the top button during 10 sec
    I am running out of solution.
    Thank you for your help.
    ps:excuse my english, french is my mother thongue.
