It works because due to the VIA probing it grabs ttyUSB0 as data port. But that VIA probing is not really valid for huawei modems, doesn't cover all huawei-related fixes. So the '06-huawei' branch upstream has both commits to try to fix the issue, Dan's original commit plus the via plugin fix (which is also in MM_06)
