And the PPP log looks the same.
There is one thing I don't quite understand. I have the kernel source of the S3's latest update, and it is version 3.0.31 ...

Did you check for an update lately?

For every kernel variant I'm creating (which I have to do to retrieve the modules) there are 300 MB gone from the HD space.

I suggest asking at a Sony user's (or developer's) forum. Or - you can do it yourself.

so why not u make a brief step-by-step tutorial on how we can do this, instead of bothering u making new drivers over and over on every update? :)

Hello Josh,

I know there is a update to Jellybean but I did not want to upgade just yet. Is there a relation between this and the fact that I cannot install the driver?

Thanks.

I have added drivers for this kernel version and name. They are taken from a source tree from a different device though (Galaxy Note II).

If the modules cannot be loaded, I would need one of the modules that came with the system (most likely in "/system/lib/modules").
You can simply attach it to a post here (extension ".ko").

As I said, I have taken the modules from the kernel source which is intended for a different Samsung device. In theory, it should work - the processor type is the same, and the serial USB modules don't have any special system dependencies.

There might be differences in the basic kernel configuration though. To compare the modules, I'd need a module that came with the official system on your device. See reply to dpunto above.

I have updated the driver package for your S3 version. Can you try again?

Ok, something works and something doesn’t. Here is a screenshot. Could I try another usbserial module?

Before you try installing again, issue the command "rmmod" with all of the drivers. In this case, leave the extension out:

# rmmod option

The order is important: option - usb_wwan - usbserial.

For installing the modules reverse this order.

The usbserial module is probably not needed. It may be that this driver is built into the kernel; in that case you can just ignore the errors when loading/unloading.
