Good day! I have a problem with the above modem.
The operating system does not see the modem maybe because usb-modeswitch not
automatically switches the device mode the modem.
I think the reason - no udev rules for this modem in /lib/udev/rules.d or
/etc/udev/rules.d.
lsusb:
Code: Select all Bus 001 Device 007: ID 12d1:15e7 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
I have a few on hand Alt Linux 7 distributions and Ubuntu 14.04, there is still a bug report with the same problem here.
Please help to solve the problem situation.

Thanks for the heads up and the link to the initial bug report, this is a new usb id not reported here before.
It will be included in the May update of the usbmodeswitch data package.
Can you please paste the output from lsusb -v -d 12d1:15e7 in your next post?
What usb id does it switch to after:
Code: Select all sudo usb_modeswitch -W -I -v 12d1 -p 15e7 -M 55534243123456780000000000000011062000000101000100000000000000
Please also paste an lsusb -v -d for the new id.

Your usbmodeswitch log is not complete, there should be more info in the end of it.
Something like:
Set up interface 0
Use endpoint 0x01 for message sending ...
Trying to send message 1 to endpoint 0x01 ...
OK, message successfully sent
Reset response endpoint 0x81
Reset message endpoint 0x01
Device is gone, skip any further commands
the last line there indicating that the dongle has switched mode and now has a new usb id.
You can see what the new id is by entering the command:
sudo lsusb
and look for a 12d1:xxxx id where xxxx is the new pid.
then
sudo lsusb -v -d 12d1:xxxx

Hmm.. It didn't switch to modem mode, it should had done so and not be hanging on to 12d1:15e7 which is the windows install mode virtual cdrom.
Any difference if you remove the -I from the usb_modeswitch command line?
What hardware are you using and what type of usb controller? Is it a Raspberry Pi?

Yes, now it switched as it should do.
There are problems with the usb 3.0 xhci driver in linux and it is being workd on by linux kernel developers.
You can maybe get the dongle to work on a usb 3.0 port if you edit the file /etc/usb_modeswitch.conf and change the last line in the file from
#SetStorageDelay=4
to
SetStorageDelay=4
you can also increase the delay if needed but more than 6 should not be needed.
To make the mode switching automatic you will have to create a device config file in the /usr/share usb_modeswitch directory with the filename 12d1:15e7 and with the following content:
# Huawei E3531
TargetVendor=0x12d1
TargetProduct=0x1506
MessageContent="55534243123456780000000000000011062000000101000100000000000000"
you also need to create a udev rule for 12d1:15e7 in /lib/udev/rules.d/40-usb_modeswitch.rules so that usb_modeswitch will be called when you plug in the dongle to the usb port:
# Huawei E3531
ATTR{idVendor}=="12d1", ATTR{idProduct}=="15e7", RUN+="usb_modeswitch '%b/%k'"

Thank you, we will wait for support.
...
P.S. So on usb 2.0 will it work? I understand that the update will come in May, and the modem will work out of the box already (no need to do so much manipulation)?

Hello all,
I have a Huawei E3531i-2 After plugged in a Raspberry pi I got the device Id ID 12d1:1f01, so I went through procedure to switch it to usb 3G,
But after installing the usb_modeswitch the new device id is ID 12d1:14dc I vainly tried both codes I found on this page
55534243123456780000000000000a11062000000000000100000000000000
55534243123456780000000000000011062000000101000100000000000000
here the log for both keys
Code: Select all sudo usb_modeswitch -W -I -v 12d1 -p 14dc -M 55534243123456780000000000000011062000000101000100000000000000
Taking all parameters from the command line
* usb_modeswitch: handle USB devices with multiple modes
* Version 1.2.3 (C) Josua Dietze 2012
* Based on libusb0 (0.1.12 and above)

Could someone give me a hint how to calculate the code based on the device Id,
Thanks a lot

There is no 'conversion' between the ID and the switching code. You can't 'choose' an ID.
There are three known main variants of switching 'code' for Huawei modems. However, the ID after mode-switching is determined by the stick firmware alone.
Code: Select all 1. MessageContent="55534243123456780600000080000601000000000000000000000000000000"
2. MessageContent="55534243123456780000000000000011062000000100010100000000000000"
3. MessageContent="55534243123456780000000000000011063000000100010000000000000000"
1. is the "Windows" mode
2. is the "Linux" mode, which is not always serial/PPP but also ethernet-like or "qmi".
3. is the "Fallback" mode which provides serial/PPP ports - only on not-so-current models though.
In your case, I imagine you're looking for no. 3 ...

Thanks for your reply,
The last gives me this output

And what I found "strange" is the output of lsusb

You can't mode-switch 12d1:14dc - it is already switched !!
You have to issue the command to the unswitched device, while it has the ID 12d1:1f01.
Mode-switching is only possible one way: you always have to start from the freshly plugged device, appearing as a storage device.
