1. Install Network Signal Refresher Lite from the Playstore
2. Open both Network Signal Refresher and the Mobile Hotspot in split screen.
3. Hit the Refresh button in Network Signal Refresher and the quickly turn on Mobile Hotspot.
4. Profit!

Hope this helps, and you find it useful.

Using this method can our carrier still see us tethering though? On my 6P I use an app that requires root and it completely hides my tethering usage. But not planning to root the Pixel so I'm wondering if this method hides it. Thanks!

Been doing some testing with mine which is on T-Mobile. After adding the dun=0 with adb I can enable without a problem on my grandfathered plan. But they still throttle after 100mb of usage. So far I haven't found a way around this on any device I have.
The only thing that worked on the other phones is pdanet wired tethering. Wish I could find a way to get wireless tethering working like the good old days.

After 7.1.1 Nougat update, it no longer works. Did anyone else have the same problem as me?

7.1.1 update on pixel (Google play store) also ruined this for me. The network signal refresher workaround worked great before the update.
