Description Forgotten User zrC7j7NksR 2014-10-14 08:49:31 UTC
usb_modeswitch doesn't recognize my Huawei E359 modem with 2.1. I had to download 13.1's 1.2x to use my USB 3g Modem again.

Bus 002 Device 004: ID 12d1:14fe Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 

Fixed version:
Forcing installation of 'usb_modeswitch-data-1.2.5-5.1.3.noarch' from repository 'Plain RPM files cache'.
Forcing installation of 'usb_modeswitch-1.2.5-5.1.3.x86_64' from repository 'Plain RPM files cache'.

See if this is of any help
https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=903753

if so, we see at least two Huawei models working again.
Comment 3 Forgotten User zrC7j7NksR 2014-11-05 05:16:22 UTC
Thanks for the update. The hardware repo seems to have fixed it. The correct versions are: 

usb_modeswitch-2.2.0-7.1.x86_64
usb_modeswitch-data-2.2.0-7.1.noarch
