How do I get mobile hotspot to work on my Samsung galaxy s5

A

AC Question

I bought this s5 from an individual who had it on Verizon prepaid. I am currently on straight talk. When I try to turn mobile hotspot on I get an error message that reads "cannot configure" or "mobile number not found". Please help me solve this problem. TIA

Straight Talk doesn't have a tethering option (which the "individual" was evidently paying Verizon for - carriers charge for hotspot operation). The solution is to drop ST and get a tethering (hotspot) account with Verizon. (It's a setting in their database, so there's no do it yourself solution.)
