WiFi hotspot not working with windows phone 8 and of course its not working with a any other phones as well. I have tried both Android and Windows phone 8. Either of these devices doesn't even detect Ubuntu's hotspot as I have tried many possible ways..

Link I referred to: How to Turn Your Ubuntu Laptop into a Wireless Access Point

From ap-hotspot on github:

While it may still work, AP-Hotspot is abandoned. and so on

Solution that worked for me:

  • Was this meant as a reply to the other answer? OP doesn't mention using ap-hotspot but a GUI method. I may be misunderstanding, but if it was intended as a response to the other answer, then it should be a comment on that answer. – Jeremy Jul 26 '18 at 15:42
