It's exactly what the thread title says: since I updated to 8.1, I can't turn on Internet Sharing. Not that it doesn't work, but it can't be turned on. Trying to informs me that I need to upgrade my account. If I agree to, it brings me to a website that informs me that something is wrong, and it can't be done.
I'm on T-Mobile--which by default includes internet sharing with every data plan. And it worked, well enough, back on 8.0. So being sent to the website is clearly a nonstarter--something is wrong with the phone itself.
Well, after two days of running around, trying to solve this mystery, the best conclusion I could come up with is "If you update from 8.0 to 8.1, you lose internet sharing--at least on T-Mobile--at least with Lumia 925." Has anyone else experienced this? I'd like some confirmation so it's safe to say either 1) it's a known problem and a patch will correct it (Microsoft has been releasing a very steady stream of patches to address the long list of 8.1 problems) or 2) it's not a known problem, a patch may not be coming, in which case, I should try and restore 8.0 via Nokia tools.
(I was willing to forgive 8.1 for having really downgrading the music player experience, since the new functionality is very nice, but I really do need internet sharing--and buying another phone would be ridiculous.)
EDIT: To be clear, this is not the developer's preview, and I'm fully updated.
