This is a solid point. This is super high priority level feature these days.
The reasons I had to flash back to my nasty robot OS was: -microphone issue (seems to be bothering a few people and may be hardware not software problem) -calendar/contact sync (owncloud app seems to now be out and working so this is awesome and fixes it) -wifi sharing (least of priority list above, but very hard to not be able to share with other device) The rest seems to now be fully in place so I totally agree with this hotspot feature as a 'must have' Wayne (2) On 16-05-10 10:30 AM, Felipe De La Puente wrote: > Hi All, > > I have been using my Nexus 4 with Ubuntu Touch since the early days > and it's giving me the minimum I need for my use case. > > One feature that has been challenging is internet sharing (aka > tethering?).
