Hi,

I need to activate Wifi hotspot on startup (or programmatically if possible). Is there anyone did that already ?

Thanks

AFAIK, there is no Android hot-spot public API. However there are some projects using reflection (java.lang.reflect) that allows to control Hotspot, maybe you could try this one https://github.com/nickrussler/Android-Wifi-Hotspot-Manager-Class and develop your own startup app.

You can also try to simulate user input, but this is a flawed solution.
$ am start -n com.android.settings/.TetherSettings
$ input keyevent 20 & input keyevent 66

Thanks Loic, I’ve done as your suggestions and it works.
