Which exact version of NetworkManager are you using? It looks like NetworkManager cannot properly initialize the phone to be able to check for a PIN. This could be due to the older version of NM that Ubuntu ships, we've done some work in NetworkManager since that version (including the actual 0.7.0 release) that fixes that issue for many devices (by trying alternate init commands). Trying the latest NM from the PPA might help to isolate that issue. If the latest Ubuntu bits fail, then open a Terminal, become root, stop the NetworkManager service, and execute the following command: NM_SERIAL_DEBUG=1 NetworkManager --no-daemon then wait about 10 seconds, and try your 3G connection. Grab the output that NM spits out into the terminal, and paste it into a reply to this message. Thanks!
