How can one change eg25-g modem software? - tckosvic - 05-06-2022
I have seen references in these threads stating that eg25-g is firmware/software running the modem. Is this one file or a directory of files?
My PPP does not find the sim card and make phone calls as it once did. I have attributed the inability to make calls to a hardware failure of the sd/sim card holder after repeated uses. Perhaps, as an alternative, the modem software has gotten corrupted and this has stopped sim card calling. SD installed system runs manjaro-phosh.
I would like to reinstall eg25-g but I don't know where it resides in the phone software. I don't know where to get a new copy. I have manjaro-phosh running from an sd card. This allows use of pacman. I use "snowflake" ssh which provides both a terminal and a gui file manager to manipulate files between PC and PPP or edit files on PPP.
Anyone with any instructions on how to reinstall eg25-g with a fresh copy?

Install gnome-firmware:
sudo pacman -S gnome-firmware
then run from terminal: sudo gnome-firmware
you get a gui where you can flash the modem... make sure you are connected to a charger
