In order to add the HotSpot Toggle to your QS Tiles, you need:

  • Download & Install Samsung USB Drivers to your computer. 
  • Download & Install Platform-Tools to your computer. 
  • Enable Developer Options on your phone. 

Link to Samsung's USB drivers:

Link to Platform-Tools:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BSyftTZ1HMQYqVxDDy_I1ETqI_Il6SkX/view?usp=drivesdk

Enable Developer Options on your phone by going to Settings > About Phone > Software Information & Click on the Build Number 7 Times.

Open Platform-Tools Tools on your computer & Enable USB Debugging on your phone & Connect to your computer. 

Open Windows PowerShell on your computer. 

At the Command Prompt in Platform-Tools type:

\devices 

to verify the connection between the two devices. 

You'll need to watch the screen on your phone & Click "Allow" when you see the request for permission to allow the connection. 

At the Command Prompt in Windows Power Shell, now type:

Settings put secure sysui_qs_tiles "$(settings get secure sysui_qs_tiles),HotSpot

You can't type an incorrect command line, if you did it correctly, the effect will be immediate & HotSpot will be automatically added to your QS Tiles.

I downloaded an automatic tool for it. Enabled it in developer options and then connected my computer and clicked a few buttons.

A few notes regarding this, in general, and then specifically on Android 14 (OneUI 6):

 

1. The command will not work if "settings" is capitalized, and if the quotation marks at the end are left out.

2. The command does not work with "HotSpot" at the end.  At the Command Prompt, you have to write:

adb shell settings put secure sysui_qs_tiles "HotSpot,$(settings get secure sysui_qs_tiles)"

3. This will add the Mobile HotSpot Quick Settings Tile to the expanded ("Full") Quick Settings panel, not the "Top" 6-button panel.

If anyone knows how to add it to the "Top" panel, please share!
