i'm up to step 6 . it was pretty clear up to then. a) i dont have a 3Gsupport.conf file in there b) i guess the bit in the [code ] box isnt what you need to do to edit it c) presuming you mean just open the 3Gsupport file and edit that, am i just replacing all instances of vendor and product or also the VendorID /ProductID bits too?

Yup I've made a mess in that part of tutorial (wrong path/name of config file, not clear enough explanation):

You have to edit file '/system/etc/uruk.conf/3Gsupport' and it should look something like:

service_enabled=1
enable=on
vendor=12d1
product=1446
port=0

I've corrected that part of initial post. Thanks.

I've good news for Huawei E176 user, The modem doesn't require to switch mode.
So we just only need to edit ther_usb start and stop .sh
and here is the code for E176

/system/bin/tether_start_usb.sh

#!/bin/sh

# $1 is the user (not a mandatory argument)
# $2 is the password (not a mandatory argument)

setprop "3Gmod.enable" "on"
setprop "3Gmod.defVendorID" "12d1"
setprop "3Gmod.defProductID" "1003"
setprop "3Gmod.usbPort" "0"

rmmod usbserial
sleep 1

insmod /lib/modules/usbserial.ko vendor=0x12d1 product=0x1003
sleep 1

SUPPORT3G=`getprop "3Gmod.enable"`
VENDOR3G=`getprop "3Gmod.defVendorID"`
PRODUCT3G=`getprop "3Gmod.defProductID"`
PORT3G=`getprop "3Gmod.usbPort"`

if [ ${SUPPORT3G} != on ]; then

   insmod /lib/modules/musb_hdrc.ko mode_default=1
   insmod /lib/modules/cdc-acm.ko

   if [ $# -eq 0 ]
   then
       /system/bin/pppd /dev/ttyACM0 460800 call tether
   else
       /system/bin/pppd /dev/ttyACM0 460800 name $1 password $2 debug call tether
   fi
else
   if [ $# -eq 0 ]; then
       /system/bin/pppd /dev/ttyUSB${PORT3G} 921600 call tether
   else
       /system/bin/pppd /dev/ttyUSB${PORT3G} 921600 name $1 password $2 call tether
   fi
fi

/system/bin/tether_stop.sh

#!/bin/sh

SUPPORT3G=`getprop "3Gmod.enable"`

if [ $1 = "DUN" ]
then
    /system/xbin/dund --killall
elif  [ $1 = "PAN" ]
then
    /system/bin/pand --killall
else
    if [ ${SUPPORT3G} != on ]; then
	kill -9 $(pidof pppd)
	/system/bin/rmmod cdc_acm
	/system/bin/rmmod musb_hdrc
    else
	killall -15 pppd
    fi
fi

Thanks for the info on Huawei E176. I'll make some chaneges in original scripts, for those users that have modems that don't require switching, to be able to use original scripts. It'll be in 0.3 in next day or so.

ok nenadr, I'll try the rest of the process tonight cant wait to try it. have you managed to get an idea of the sort of battery drain using one of these? ie is it much worse than using wifi?

I'm getting the following on step 7 . I am using uruk 0.5 I it makes any difference

/system/xbin/3Gmodem_init.sh 12d1 1003
No 3G USB dongle support detected. Will try to initialize modem.

Please, take a look couple of posts up, for an alternate solution, because it seems that your vendorID and productID doesn't need mode-switching. I'll fix the scripts, and tutoral for that case tomorrow.

lol. oh yeah. sorry. i didnt know mine was a E176 and as such i skimmed over those posts sorry for appearing to be a bit of a idiot. cant wait for the new script.

btw has $auron shown any interest in incorporating this into his rom. would be useful to have all the legwork done automatically and maybe urukconfig could do some of the stuff that isnt able to be done automatically

yes, his shown interest but this code is stll not mature (and tested on) enough devices to be merged with uruk.... meybe for some later urukdroid, who knows
