MHL adapter working??

[sniffs]

So I had an already hooked up MHL adapter from my HTC One X+, I still have the phone and the adapter plugged in and when I try and connect my HTC One to it, a popup appears saying I must have the hotspot feature?!? WTH?

That's really a wth. I've been using double twist to stream to my Xbox, but it won't play videos recorded on the phone.

Others have had the same issue, something about the AT&T model. Try turning off the radios for wifi and mobile communication and see if it works. One person had success doing that, others have not.

Yeah it makes NO sense to require hotspot, since the MHL adapter requires WIFI! If WIFI is on, it'll be using WIFI data!

Yeah it makes NO sense to have this device, which requires WIFI be on and connected, to have the hotspot feature!? If WIFI is on, it'll be using WIFI data!

Huh?

I think its an ATT issue. My One x+ asks for a connection to hotspot as well when i try to connect it to my HTC Media Link HD, this started after the most recent One X+ update a few weeks ago.
Thank You ATT.. grrrr.
