Re: [Bug 1340154] Re: On modem initialization, Modem Manager 0.5.2 sets text mode instead of PDU mode for SMS, but newer modems can't work in this mode

 

Thanks Marius, but the issue is getting the backport request supported 
for 12.04. No problems installing 12.04 on non-pae systems - however I 
believe it is the last currently supported platform that works on 
non-pae systems. Hence the backport request to address modem manager 
bugs and issues on 12.04...

Title:
  On modem initialization, Modem Manager 0.5.2 sets text mode instead of
  PDU mode for SMS, but newer modems can't work in this mode

Bug description:
  To-date, cannot utilise Modem Manager GUI in 12.04 LTS, as it is understood that there is a 'bug' in Modem Manager version 0.5.2 that installed in Ubuntu 12.04 by default. On modem initialization it sets text mode instead of PDU mode for SMS, but newer modems can't work in this mode.
  I understand the GUI works well and has been introduced into Saucy Salamander and later versions, but Modem Manager versions 0.6 or later has not yet been made available for 12.04 LTS users which enables its SMS functions etc to work.

  It is hoped that an updated version of Modem Manager that addresses
  this and other bug fixes can be introduced into 12.04 LTS very soon
  for users like myself who have been looking out patiently for a couple
  of years for this functionality. Thanks in advance for the anticipated
  support... cheers!
