This phone is broken (broken screen) and was given to me, so I figured I’d use it as a WiFi extender, but I guess I can’t.

    Yeah, I’m definitely blocked from turning on my hotspot with AT&T until it can verify that I’m allowed specifically from the cellular network.

    This could very well be a carrier lock-in.
