[Bug 1478113] [NEW] After enabling hotspot, it automatically disables itself

 

Public bug reported:

Tested silo-046 ( hotspot support ) on krillin ( stable, #23 ).

Note, I installed the indicator and system-settings directly from the
PPA.  I also had installed a new version of ofono from a silo which
contained minor fixes for voicemail indications and MMS, so should have
no effect.

First, hotspot requires WiFi to be enabled, which is contrary to how
hotspot works on other OSes ( iOS8, Android5 ).

So I enabled WiFi, then "forgot" the current AP via WiFi settings.

Next I enabled hotspot.   While checking on a couple of devices for the
hotspot SSID to appear, I noticed that the hotspot toggle switch had
automatically changed back to disabled.

Note, to rule out powerd, I ran the test with the phone 'Lock phone'
setting to 10m.
