Chromecast and Hotspot

If you have been using your Android phone as a hotspot to stream netflix and it has stopped working. Google has upgrade Google Play Service , so chromecast will not work with you data. Here is the fix.. go to settings / apps /Google Play Service / 3 dots at top right / uninstall upgrades ... After you unistall the last upgrade you will be able to stream netflix again, after watching your shows go back and install upgrades so your phone will work right again .. you have to do this every time , but not that hard after you do it once or twice.. hope this works for you , it works for me.
  • Google is aware of the problem and has promised a fix sometime this summer.
  • I stream to my phone which works fine. My hotspot stopped working in town a couple days ago. Worked fine 5 miles away. No reported Verizon problems.
