Ericsson f3507g // Dell Wireless 5530

Recommended Posts

This is a really old guide.. made for SL, i doubt it still works.. but hey.. give it a try :)

Leon - I am so happy to see Ericsson f3507g is still working so well on Mavericks.

it is recognized as 2 diail-up modems after I installed on Lenovo x201 (remember to tape pin20 -- it is very important,  otherwise, the laptop does not recognize it). After I patched CellPhoneHelper.kext, there are one diail-up modem, the other becomes WWAN.

It does not matter to create Network Interface based on diail-up modem or WWAN,  they both show signal bar.  I still use you dell script to connect to T-Mobile, 7.2Mbps.

Ericsson f3507g  is fully supported by Mavericks,  even radio indicator is working (turn on/off while connecting/disconnecting,  flashed while data sending/receiving)

After I install Ericsson f3507g (tape pin 20) in Thinkpad X201. I can see it is showing up under USB devices folder:

after applying above patch to  CellPhoneHelper.kext, it is also showing up as WWAN device: (IMEI# and My T-Mobile phone#  from SIM card are both listed there, Apple driver supports f3507g perfectly)

Then check my Network Device (showing 2 Interfaces,  USBModem and WWAN):

Adding WWAN interface to Network:

It is showing up on Finder MenuBar:

Check it first from USB part to see:
1.The card is showing up under USB.  if not,  need to tape PIN 20, insert the card again.
2. If Yes,  what is ProductID/VendorID?
3. in My patch for Ericsson f3507g in CellPhoneHelper.kext,  replace <key>0x0bdb/0x1900 Ericsson F3507g</key>   with your <key>0xVVVV/0xPPPP Ericsson F3507g</key>,  also this part with decimal values (not hexadecimal)
<key>idProduct</key>
<integer>6400</integer>
<key>idVendor</key>
<integer>3035</integer>
4. reboot,  you will get WWAN card showing up

Hello KFP,

 

Now the card appears as wwan card. But there are just a few Settings in advanced settings. In "others" is no entry and in generic is just a V.90 Apple Modem. If I choose Sony Ericsson/ GSM/UMTS I Can fill in the APN and then I select others, so I can see a generic GSM/UMTS Setting and apply it. Know it connects but next time after reboot or sign in the WWAN-Status icon is disabled and the advanced setting is reseted to V90 Modem. Do you have any ideas?

 

If I select "show WWAN-Status in menu bar" it apears, but after robot it is disabled again.

 

 

kind regards
