I've been having the same issue, it just recently appeared after my phone shut off. I was able to use the Mobile Hotspot without any interruption before this.

Well, the battery for the phone is about nearly 2 years old, and I have yet to replace it so sometimes it will just like to die even on the charger. I have the Droid Razr M model, and I've never experienced any issues with the Mobile Hotspot, other then the 4g LTE likes to disconnect sometimes forcing me to either restart the phone or put it in Airplane Mode for a couple of minutes. Let me re-say what my issue is, it just says "Error" under the Mobile Hotspot, if I restart the phone it will not be there, but when I turn it on it'll say "Checking subscription status" stay grey for a second, and just say "Error". I can use the USB Tethering and Bluetooth connection. I've tried restarting the phone, and clearing the cache. Nothing has worked, I've looked online for solutions but only seen that people try Factory Resetting their phones, but nothing even happens from that.

Thanks for the additional information, Gray19. I can understand needing a new battery after 2 years but let's work on the issue at hand with your Mobile Hotspot. Have you tried to check the settings for the connection to maintain itself? If not, try going to settings>apps>all>mobile host spot>disable>enable then i was able to have the customer turn mobile hot spot on.',Also, here's tips on how to extend battery life http://tiny.cc/exqv1x . Keep us posted.

This didn't work at all, nothing has changed by doing this. Would you recommend restarting the phone then doing this?
