I'd like to get an internet connection via my android phone (on
tmobile). After connecting the phone via usb and turning on its
tethering option, I see the usb info in dmesg, but when I try to run
the pppd chat script it doesn't get any response from the phone. I
wonder if it's because I need to specify a device, but how do I tell
which of the tty* or cua* device names to specify in the chat script?
(I tried several.)
Or, is the issue that I need to think differently about and somehow
be using ifconfig, urndis, or umsm? I've read much in man pages
and previous content of the list but am still not sure of how one
actually uses urndis unless it's simply by ppp chat script. If it's
that, then maybe I just do have the wrong device specified.
Here is the relevant /var/log/messages output:

Here's the output from the chat script:
#pppd call tmobile;et
timeout set to 10 seconds
abort on (BUSY)
abort on (NO ANSWER)
abort on
(ERROR) Starting GPRS connect script
send (ATZ^M)
expect (OK) ATZ
alarm
send (\K)

Here is the /etc/ppp/peers/tmobile script:
/dev/ttyp2
921600
noauth
debug
connect '/usr/sbin/chat -e -s -v -f /etc/ppp/peers/tmobile-chatscript'
And lastly, here is the chat script itself that I run with the
command:
TIMEOUT 10
ABORT 'BUSY'
ABORT 'NO ANSWER'
ABORT 'ERROR'
SAY 'Starting GPRS connect script\n'
# Get the modem's attention and reset it.
"" 'ATZ'
#"" 'ppp'
# E0=No echo, V1=English result codes
OK-BREAK-OK 'ATE0V1'
# Set Access Point Name (APN)
SAY 'Setting APN\n'
OK 'AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","fast.tmobile.com"'
# Dial the number
ABORT 'NO CARRIER'
SAY 'Dialing...\n'
OK 'ATD*99***1#'
CONNECT ''
I know these scripts probably
lack important things, but I thought I should get a response
from the "ATZ" command before expecting anything else to work.
(If there's a good example somewhere that would help; I've
found a few and the man pages to study.)
Thanks!
