[Bug 1091663] Re: 3G is non-functional on 32GB+3G Nexus 7

 

This is the kind of bug that would *maybe* be fixed by using ofono
rather than modemmanager in this instance.

While I understand it's unfortunate that the 3G doesn't work on that
device; there is not much I can do until this is fixed upstream for the
original Nexus 7. The Nexus 7 2013 might already work, and would require
careful testing. Unfortunately, I do not have that hardware so I can't
do the tests.

I'm keeping that bug open in case people for modemmanager in Ubuntu in
case people want to keep working with upstream on adding support for
Infineon modems, but I'll close the task for ubuntu-nexus7 (there won't
be package updates there, sadly) and I'll unassign myself, since it's
unlikely I'll have time to look into this in the near future.

Please, don't hesitate to file other bug reports for modemmanager
specifically or Ubuntu in general. Feel free to comment here if there is
anything to add for the Infineon modems, I will still see the bug report
comments and be able to respond as appropriate. Thanks!

  Support for Infineon modems

  Confirmed
Status in Ubuntu on the Nexus 7:
  Invalid
Status in modemmanager package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Repeated attempts to get 3G connectivity on my Nexus 7 fail. The same
  SIM worked fine under Android.

  Very occasionally, a notification pops up saying that I have
  connected, but I am then immediately disconnected again. Most of the
  time, though, I get a 'disconnected' notification and nothing else.

  My provider is giffgaff (UK). The mobile broadband hardware is
  definitely detected by Ubuntu, given that it appears in the network
  menu.

  I can do further testing if asked.
