i was having trouble with instant-hotspot and hand-off not working with my ipad and iphone6+ on ios8.
i've managed to figure it out via restore and setting resets multiple times. no idea what combination i did to fix it

everything is good now. but i end up having duplicate device name in bluetooth setting; iPad and iphone. one instance of the device i can remove, while the other i can't, it's greyed out. I'm fearful to remove one of the device, at the risk of losing the features i got working.
i found out that you can remove the duplicate, but you have to reset network setting, then reset all setting. which might cause me to lose the features. and it also reset the device name to default; "iPhone" "iPad". then when i rename each device, it shows up as the new name and the old

man ios8 is so buggy.
