So, I've figured out how to enable the Wi-Fi Hotspot without having the feature on my AT&T account, and WITHOUT rooting. It requires a restart to enable it each time but it's extremely easy to do. Not promising it'll work on anyone else's phone, but it works on mine every time.
1. Yank the SIM and confirm "Restart".
2. Insert the SIM and wait for boot. (Note: Leave SIM/SD conver OFF)
3. Turn on Hotspot (Settings > Wireless & networks)
4. Replace SIM/SD cover.
Video of the process coming. Unfortunately this whole no HSUPA thing is slowing down the upload.
Does it work on yours?
