Modem Dead?

     I have been using my PinePhone quite consistently now for months now and have been enjoying the experience.  I had to run out and buy a cheap flip phone though out of necessity because it seems my modem may have died.

I have tried resetting the device, even letting it sit off for a while, and messing with the physical switches, but to no avail.  The cellular icon is grayed out and has a slash through it, and the mobile options have completely disappeared from settings.

Has anyone had this issue, and is there a fix, or do I need a new mobo?

command "lsusb". if modem is alive you should see something maybe "ID 05c6:9008 Qualcomm, Inc. Gobi Wireless Modem (QDL mode)", "EC25 LTE Modem"  or something else. if nothing, then it's a bad sign it's dead.

however, possibly using usb_boot you may be able to boot into edl mode and fix it. it's somewhat difficult and it does not guarantee anything.
