Dear ModemManager developers,

I discovered that the problem can be resolved by unloading some kernel modules 
and restarting modem manager.

rmmod huawei_cdc_ncm
rmmod cdc_mbim
rmmod sierra
rmmod sierra_net
/etc/init.d/modemmanager restart

mmcli -m 0 -d
mmcli -m 0 -e
mmcli -m 0 --simple-connect="apn=live.vodafone.com”

I can put this in a script in my OS, but I have a question.  These modules do 
not seem to be required for my system to work, but they are dependences for 
compiling modem manager.  Why is that so?
