It looks like a rule is not present for this particular device id. You will have to do some minor poking around to figure out what tty corresponds to what function (e.g. Pcui, Modem, see other Huawei rules for examples), add a new entry to ofono.rules and try to see if it works. Ok, i've found another possible soluttion using usb_modeswitch, but it didn't work yet: http://www.draisberghof.de/usb_modeswitch/bb/viewtopic.php?t=552 Do you think that the usb_modeswitch approach is better/worse?
