debian+phosh running on PinePhone

[LazLong]

Yes,  we are on similar quests,
most of my efforts have been on the same two operating systems,
but I think I should at least try some of the other Distro's to be fair and maybe expand my views a bit.
  Bit difficult for me as I am mostly a GUI user,
I was having problems for some time with Mobian and the sms/text app.
I fixed mine by simply installing the 'Modem Manager' from the onboard Software store. (GUI fix ?)

Good Luck,  have Fun,  B.C.

Glad you got your texting sorted out.  After you mentioning your successs by just installing ModemManager, I installed the ModemManager from the Mobian 8-3 nightly build in the longshot hope it might fix or alter my Braveheart's modem's "no sim card" problem.

However, when run the ModemManager app it seems to find the EG25 modem but throws a message that the modem is not ready and that it is "waiting" but does not get any further that that. 

In UBPorts I have run the modem scripts below that have been discussed in the past but to no avail.  There are few other modem scripts in /usr/share/ofono/scriptsthat I have played with as well but they didn't seem to change or fix anything.

sudo /usr/share/ofono/scripts/enable-modem
sudo /usr/share/ofono/scripts/online-modem

After some digging there seems to be a tool called QFirehose capable of flashing firmware to the EG25-G modem. It's a bit uncertain whether or not it's enough to recover from a bad shutdown but it might be worth asking about it.
-----------------------------

Can anyone suggest any scripts, tools or commands that they have successfuly used to resurrect a Bravehearts' modem? 

For instance has anyone tried or had any luck with the "QFirehose" utility mention by Djhg2000 above?

Any help will be appreciated.
