I have the same problem on 16.04. The usb mode switch does not trigger
properly.
The following workaround works for me:
To fix automatic switching, a new udev rule is required (do not modify the
original automatic rule in /lib/udev/rules.d/40-usb_modeswitch.rules). Create
the file /etc/udev/rules.d/39-usbmodeswitch-custom.rules with:
------------------------
# Hack: specifc rule for switching Huawei E3276 and similar modems
SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ACTION=="add", ATTRS{idVendor}=="12d1",
ATTRS{idProduct}=="1f01", RUN+="/etc/udev/rules.d/switch_usb_mode.sh"
------------------------
Next create an executable script (chmod +x)
/etc/udev/rules.d/switch_usb_mode.sh:
---------------------------
#!/bin/bash
# switch HUAWEI modem to modem-mode using Huawei new mode option J
usb_modeswitch -J -v 0x12d1 -p 0x1f01
---------------------------
