Description of problem: When I plugin my Huawei E177, it does not appear in the NetworkManager applet. I tried to start and enable ModemManager.service with no luck. In the Disks utility, I two Huawei devices appear, one as a Huawei SD Storage Drice and the other as a Huawei Mass Storage CD Drive with no options to umount any of them, when trying to umount them via the terminal I get a device not mounted message. it seems my modem is being recognized as a CD-ROM, dmesg outputs the following: [ 82.002571] usb 2-1.1: new high-speed USB device number 4 using ehci-pci [ 82.089835] usb 2-1.1: New USB device found, idVendor=12d1, idProduct=1446 [ 82.089841] usb 2-1.1: New USB device strings: Mfr=3, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 [ 82.089843] usb 2-1.1: Product: HUAWEI Mobile [ 82.089845] usb 2-1.1: Manufacturer: HUAWEI Technology [ 82.325561] usb-storage 2-1.1:1.0: USB Mass Storage device detected [ 82.325921] scsi host6: usb-storage 2-1.1:1.0 [ 82.326045] usb-storage 2-1.1:1.1: USB Mass Storage device detected [ 82.326113] scsi host7: usb-storage 2-1.1:1.1 [ 82.326221] usbcore: registered new interface driver usb-storage [ 82.334124] usbcore: registered new interface driver uas [ 83.330500] scsi 7:0:0:0: Direct-Access HUAWEI SD Storage 2.31 PQ: 0 ANSI: 2 [ 83.330637] scsi 6:0:0:0: CD-ROM HUAWEI Mass Storage 2.31 PQ: 0 ANSI: 2 [ 83.331448] sd 7:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg2 type 0 [ 83.336715] sr 6:0:0:0: [sr1] scsi-1 drive [ 83.337154] sr 6:0:0:0: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr1 [ 83.337445] sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk [ 83.337490] sr 6:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg3 type 5 [ 1070.357495] usb 2-1.1: USB disconnect, device number 4 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 24, ModemManager-1.6-0.3.rc3, NetworkManager-1.2.2-2, usb_modeswitch-2.3.0-1. How reproducible: All I did was that I upgraded my F23 to F24 using dnf. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install F23. 2. Run in terminal: dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=24 --allowerasing -y --nogpgcheck 3. dnf system-upgrade reboot 4. Plugin modem
Just tried again on a fresh installation of F24 and got the same results.
Hi. I have a similar problem. My bags ID 1354574. I solved the problem adding in file /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/40-usb_modeswitch.rules lines: #Huawei E173 add heands ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="12d1", ATTR{idProduct}=="1446", RUN+="usb_modeswitch '%b/%k" the modem was detected as modem to test the modem with the command in the terminal: usb_modeswitch -v 12d1 -p 1446 -J
Thanks @alexhorov, your solution works perfectly.
Thanks for solution, I have Huawei E353/E3131 (E3272) In Fedora 23 in /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/40-usb_modeswitch.rules worked generic rule: ATTRS{idVendor}=="12d1", ATTRS{manufacturer}!="Android", ATTR{bInterfaceNumber}=="00", ATTR{bInterfaceClass}=="08", RUN+="usb_modeswitch '%b/%k'" but it's not working in F24 and i must replace this line onto: ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="12d1", ATTR{idProduct}=="1f01", RUN+="usb_modeswitch '%b/%k"
Looks like the generic Huawei udev rule is working again with this update (works fine now on E3372): https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-494a721a73 Please check and leave karma!
