After many months, I finally got this modem working in Xenial (Thinkpad T460s). Install the libqmi 1.16.0, libmbim 1.14.0, and modemmanager 1.6.0 packages from Yakkety Yak, and make sure you're on kernel 4.4.0-36-generic #55. Reboot and everything should Just Work, assuming your SIM card is indeed usable (test it in Windows to make sure; my first attempt failed due to SIM issues). I'm posting this through my LTE connection.
One minor remaining bug is that the signal strength indicator in Network Manager is not working; it shows zero bars of signal regardless of the actual signal strength. But I can live with that for now. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1579290 Title: Sierra EM7455 not working usbutils To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usbutils/+bug/1579290/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
