Amoi three skypephone S2 modem not recognised 0.7

[Nick_Hill]

Binary package hint: network-manager

The three skypephone S2 made by Amoi does not register as a modem under network manager.

The S2 does support USB modem, and comes with a windows driver. The ini file for the windows driver has a proprietary CDC modem driver is mentioned. I can attach this if copyright permits. It includes init strings etc.

dmesg shows detection of a USB CD Rom drive from the phone, but does not show detection of any serial ports unless I run modprobe usbserial vendor=0x1614 product=0x0407. If I do this, it appears four serial ports are detected. Output of dmesg included, showing detection of ports after the modprobe command.

Expected behaviour: connect phone, network manager pops up to show config options, or gives option to connect via mobile wireless (generally works very well for much hardware! - Thanks!)

Actual behaviour: no response to connecting phone. Kernel driver fails to load for CDC or usbserial modem interface.

Phone USB ID: Vendor=1614 Device=0407

Tested on 9.10 Alpha 3. Same as 9.04.

Adding the vendor and device ids to the USB: Option driver and recompiling seems to fix the problem.
Tested working on 9.10 beta x64 2.6.31-14-generic.

Can anyone confirm this is fixed? Network manager in 10.10 doesn't show anything for me?
