Hi @Connorbirdd20

 

Welcome to the community.

 

Have you tried resetting your factory settings on the iPhone?

 

Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.

Hi @Connorbirdd20 

 

Make sure your phone is viewable and refresh the network search on your Samsung TV.

 

 

Thanks

Hi I have an IPhone 11 on EE and it won’t connect via hotspot to my Samsung Smart TV. It’s shown on the network list. It allows me to put the correct password in and then just shows little red crosses on the network connection. 
I’ve reset the network settings on both the TV and the phone. My girlfriends phone connects straight away, hers is iPhone 12 on o2 

 

any ideas guys ??

Hi Leanne Yes I can connect to other TV’s and wifi devices no problem.
