Thank you Marius for updating you PPA. It's a pity the packages are failing to build. I tried building 0.6.2.0 from source, but I've found some errors, so I decided to workaround this bug by downgrading modemmanager. I've found a very simple way for that:
1- Download Precise's modemmanager 0.5.2.0: wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/98148167/modemmanager_0.5.2.0-0ubuntu2_amd64.deb 2- Remove current modemmanager: sudo apt-get remove modemmanager 3- Install the downloaded package: sudo dpkg -i modemmanager_0.5.2.0-0ubuntu2_amd64.deb -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to modemmanager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1057186 Title: Modem functionality of the Huawei E173 and E3131 doesn't work Status in ModemManager (with NetworkManager support): Fix Released Status in “modemmanager” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Modem functionality of Huawei E173 works in 12.04 but not in later releases, although it can be read as a drive.
