If hotspot is on toggle doesn't work

Wi-Fi can't be enabled when hotspot is on. And only system apps can disable hotspot. Maybe I should add a toast, in such cases? Something like "disable tethering first"

Wi-Fi can't be enabled when hotspot is on.

Wi-Fi stays connected when you enable hotspot on Android 12. And system Wi-Fi/LTE toggle lets you enable/disable Wi-Fi while hotspot is on.

In fact, now you have to disable Wi-Fi manually, or else your hotspot will work as a Wi-Fi repeater (but with its own SSID) instead being an actual hotspot for the LTE connection on your phone. Yet another terrible design decision in Android 12.

This repo is done, there is an easier way now: https://www.xda-developers.com/bring-back-wifi-mobile-data-quick-settings-tiles-android-12-adb/

This repo is done, there is an easier way no

Using ADB to modify system settings is not easier than installing an APK. And this method can stop working with any of the monthly Android updates in the future. Self-contained solution will always be more reliable.

Use Better Internet Tiles, you'll need Shizuku
