I haven't used hotspot in a couple of weeks, but the latest build has broken looks to have broken hotspot.

Hotspot turns on, but no device can see it. My device is a 950XL.

Camera software seems to be extremely slow. My Ativ S takes pictures as fast as the 950XL. It will take a picture, show you a preview of the picture, you click to take a look, and 2-5 seconds go by before you even see the picture. I don't expect this to be a camera....but if it was remotely functional like other top phones from other vendors... that would be an awesome feature.
 
Wasn't hotspot issue one of known issues in this build? I believe the solution was to restart your phone, but then hotspot would work just once.
 
Can confirm on Lumia 950.
I use hotspots regularly every day, and the update for fast ring on Saturday/Sunday completely broke this functionality (I believe it's 10.0.14926.1000)
You can turn on/off the feature but no device will ever be able to see it, and restarting does not fix this issue, not even once.
