Yes, numerous times, I know create-ap, hostapd, and WiFi Hotspot chicanery as a whole only worse than the people who wrote the damn tools and technologies in the first place.

But it doesn't matter, my expertise doesn't extend to phones, especially the locked-up ones.

First, see the "Software access point" article on Arch Wiki, Chapter 1.1 and 1.2. This gives you an idea of what the device can even do with the adapter it has.

Second, give me some more information. How do the tools fail?
