Same Issue on LG Spectrum with same firmware version and same app version as 
original poster. 

My app was not restored, it was a fresh install from the Play store.

I also attempted using the both Generic ICS profiles, with all of the different 
setup methods, all produced errors.

With Netndc: Configuring AP failed, Starting AP failed
With netd: configuring IP address failed
with wext: setting ad-hoc mode failed

There is a developer working on the problem over on this forum thread. It 
appears that the ad-hoc files are not present in the Spectrum ICS release.

So far that developer has not been successful. Anyone else have a fix yet?

Wifi_tether 3.3 pre2
Use generic ics/jb wlan0
Setup method hotsapd

You may have to reboot your phone 
And I can't get the encryption to work
