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.

Thanks !!! Some additional instructions for newbies: 

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

adb shell

a $ prompt will appear. Then type 

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


(on your post, you missed the double quotes at the end )

a) 

at the command prompt it's:

adb\

Followed by the command line. 

b) 

There's no "double quotation marks" at the end.

This didn't work for me. (S22 windows 10 latest platform tools.) Had to see what others did in order for it to work in my case. I think you really need the double quotation marks at the end.

From XDA's Mishaal Rahman. It's not the same QS Tile that we're looking at here, but the command line structure. 

But, hey if it worked for you, great. However adb commands will usually just fail to work, or you'll get red on a black background saying that there is an error / not found / not recognized.

This command line worked wonders, could not with op instructions so here is what worked for me (noob). 

Samsung USB drivers and get the lastest official download for android devices : https://developer.samsung.com/mobile/android-usb-driver.html

SDK Platform tools and get the latest official downloads :
https://developer.android.com/tools/releases/platform-tools

Follow the phone prep (dev mode + debug mode) as described by OP and install the tool kit and drivers.

Type CMD in the path bar of the installation folder for Platform tools (make sure to extract your files first),  

 Type ADB start-server in the command prompt,

  Type ADB Devices 

    Confirm your device is LINKED + Authorized. As OP stated, make sure to check your phone screen for the prompt to accept and link. (If device is listed but not authorized follow these instructions :
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23081263/adb-android-device-unauthorized )

    Type ADB SHELL

      Then paste the following : 

settings put secure sysui_qs_tiles "$(settings get secure sysui_qs_tiles),MobileData,Hotspot"

The Icon then appeared as my last quick select icon. There is no confirmation in the command prompt, check your phone after pasting the command and pressing enter. 

Thanks to OP and Dragonyte as well as the others posted in this comment,

Cheers.

This was really helpful. It worked wonders. The 'mobiledata' was missing from the initial code.  Thanks:)
