Cannot connect to Personal Hotspot iOS 7 iPhone 4

Hi. I have updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 7. Before, I have no problem in using Personal Hotspot. But after this upgrade, no one can connect to my Personal Hotspot. In my iPad, it keeps trying to connect to the hotspot for a long long time and cannot connect. In my HTC Android, it keeps on "Obtaining IP Adress". In my PC (USB Tethering), it says that the cable is unplugged.

I have several ways to solve this problem (like turn off - turn on mobile data, turn off - turn on iPhone, reset network setting) but nothing changed.

What can I do in this situation? Thanks in advance.

I am not sure I am right. I have iPhone4, iPad3 and iPhone5 of my friend. Both iPhones have already upgrade to iOS7,last update this morning. And my iPad is still using iOS 5.x. The problem is I cannot using USB connect Personal Hotspot from my devices. I think the correct issue may involve with iTunes not the version of iOS. It seems the problem was occurred after I have done update iTunes.

* I used iOS 7 beta and it's ok since I update iTunes ,then I have tried restore my iPhone to iOS 7.0.2.
** I connect iTunes from my Macbook.

*** I have try it on different of iOS.

**** I don't have issue with Personal Hotspot on WiFi but on Bluetooth,I've never used it.

If anyone has any ideas,please let me know.

Thanks
