Mmm... This is puzzling. The only thing that changed was an upgrade of network-manager/modem-manager in the previous installation. Then that installation (system on an SD card) became unusable (unrelated problem) and I installed a new system on a new SD card and it didn't work, again. Your answer prompted me to try again and, surprisingly, it now works correctly again. > Just having service (eg, "AT+CSS: 1") isn't enough, because in the CDMA > systems you'll almost always connect to the network for emergency > calls, even if you cannot initiate a data connection. Thank you for the clarification. I now understand better what modem-manager is trying to do and the likely bugs/limitations of this old phone. > I'd be pretty curious what made things work again, if you have any > command traces from that time? Not specific log file entries but the version of network-manager on the old system (where it worked, then didn't and then worked again) was 1.4.something. The new installation was 1.6.something, but this is probably coincidental since this one is now working also and I'm pretty confident that the phone software is buggy. It sometimes reboots itself, other times after a data session I have to power cycle the phone or voice calls can't be made, and I think the charging sofware is also buggy and is slowly ruining the battery by overcharging, but maybe the battery is just old. In any case, thank you for replying. >...
