Error Code 67 Sprint Mobile HotSpot

[mswlogo]

I keep getting Error Code 67 when I start Sprint Mobile Hotspot

Is this possibly because I don't have it on my plan?

I only have the SERO Premium plan $50/mo

I have done all the suggestions of resetting Provisioning with ##3283#

Does PDANET get around this?

Do I have to be rooted to run a HotSpot.

I rarely used it and it worked great on TP2 (custom ROM).

I will eventually root it but just trying to avoid a time sync right now.

Thanks
