Setup mobile hotspot (I used HTC M8) with device not connected to Wi-Fi.
Connect another device (I used Samsung Galaxy Tab 4)
Start playing Minecraft game on other device
I can see the game in the Friends tab, but Minecraft says that I need to be connected to a Wi-Fi network to play.
I don't know if this is even possible, but since Minecraft can see the game on the other device, maybe it is.

This happen after 0.16.0 update, also happen to me, if u want join the game you must turn on play with data cellular, and turn on data cellular, and boom you can join, after joining turn off data cellular, and if u want hosting LAN multiplayer, you must turn on data cellular before entering world, and turn off again if you have entered, try it! Its work for me
