ZTE MF691 (T-Mobile webConnect Rocket 2.0) [solved]

shawnjgoff · Post by **shawnjgoff** » 17 Sep 2010, 00:27

I have the new T-Mobile Rocket 2. It's a ZTE device, so I've tried most of the messages for other ZTE devices; but haven't been able to get it to work. I did notice that ejecting the fake cd-rom did the trick: two ttyACM devices showed up. I'm wondering if this is a standard known message that I can use.

Got it!

Code: Select all

# t-mobile ZTE MF691  Rocket 2

DefaultVendor=  0x19d2
DefaultProduct= 0x1201

TargetVendor=   0x19d2
TargetProduct=  0x1203
                                                                               
MessageContent="5553424392020000000000000000061B000000020000000000000000000000"

How do I go about getting this added to the official data files?

Are you able to get this device online in Linux?

I can switch it, but with the option driver it creates 9 ttyUSB devices but none of them respond to AT commands =/

Hm. I was able to get it to work. For me, two ttyACM devices showed up. You can use either of them for ppp (I think) and the other one can be used for AT commands while it is connected. This is on Kernel 2.6.26. I think it uses the cdc-acm driver.

Can we add this to the data? Here's what I'm using, it works:

Code: Select all

# t-mobile ZTE MF691  Rocket 2 
# http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9905846
# http://www.draisberghof.de/usb_modeswitch/bb/viewtopic.php?p=3334

DefaultVendor= 0x19d2
DefaultProduct= 0x1201

TargetVendor= 0x19d2
TargetProduct= 0x1203

CheckSuccess=20
MessageContent="5553424392020000000000000000061B000000020000000000000000000000"

#end

And

Code: Select all

# t-mobile ZTE MF691  Rocket 2
ATTRS{idVendor}=="19d2", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1201", RUN+="usb_modeswitch '%b/%k'"

Oops, that device must have slipped from my table ...

Will put it into the next data package release. Thanks for the reminder!
