Welcome to Android Central! What device do you have? Are you saying that it was updated to KitKat, and now you can't turn its mobile hotspot on? Or do you mean that the phone can't connect to someone else's hotspot?

If you mean you can't tether another device to your phone to get internet on that device, do you have a tethering account? Verizon doesn't allow tethering unless you pay for it.

My problem was my phones hotspot settings. I configured my Hotspot on the phone by going into advanced options and selecting wifi broadcast frequency of 2.4GHZ, 5ghz doesn't work.
