Personal Hotspot Missing In IPhone 4

Hello Friends,

From past few months I am owning an IPhone 4 with IDEA post paid connection. Recently, I came to know that there is a feature called Personal Hotspot available in the settings section. But somehow, this setting was missing for me :-(
Yes, I know it is really very sad... But then after lot of finding, I got this solution that really worked. And just like I do always, I am sharing this with all of you :-)




Well, if you do not see Personal Hotspot option in the setting page of your IPhone, then please follow this steps,

METHOD 1
-----------
1. Go to Settings -> General -> Network
2. Check if you can see Personal Hotspot option there. Please note that this option is somehow supported by you carrier provider. (I wonder what this has to be with the carrier, but it is :-( ). If you see the option there and are not able to enable it then move to Method 2




METHOD 2
-------------
1)Go to Setting -> General -> Network -> Cellular Data
2) Now, scroll down to Internet Tethering -> Enter APN (If you do not know these values, then ask the carrier provider. Or you can try entering the same values as in the Cellular Data section in the top of same page)
3) If Step 2 does not work then Go to Setting -> General -> Network ->cellular data -> scroll down to Internet Tethering -> Reset Setting. After reset enter the APN again as in Step 2 above
3)if problem still persist do following,
a)Call your mobile operator check it they have any restriction on tethering
b) Hard reset your mobile to reset it
c) or as a last option try to restore through ITunes


Hope this helps all of you and you can enjoy sharing your IPhone's internet connection with all your house hold wifi enabled devices...

Thank you and have fun... cheers!!
