Modem can't dial out
#1
Finally took the plunge and moved phone service to my pinephone, time to get on the cutting edge of Open Source.... ouch.

Can send and receive SMS, can receive calls.  Can't call out.

Here is what showed in .xsession-errors
Code:
** (sm.puri.Calls:3442): WARNING **: 12:55:03.573: Error starting outgoing call ModemManager call to `13374636217': GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.ModemManager1.Error.Core.Failed: Couldn't start the call: Unhandled response '+QLWURC: "pdp active","failed","nxtgenphone"

+QLWURC: "deregister",0'
** Message: 12:55:03.606: Removing call `/org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Call/0'
** Message: 12:55:03.607: Call `/org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Call/0' removed
And logread:

Code:
Nov 20 12:55:03 pinephone daemon.info [2839]: <info>  [modem0/call0] user request to start call
Nov 20 12:55:03 pinephone daemon.info [2839]: <info>  [modem0/call0] call state changed: unknown -> dialing (outgoing-started)
Nov 20 12:55:03 pinephone daemon.warn [2839]: <warn>  [modem0/call0] couldn't start call: Couldn't start the call: Unhandled response '+QLWURC: "pdp active","failed","nxtgenphone"^M ^M +QLWURC: "deregister",0'
Nov 20 12:55:03 pinephone daemon.info [2839]: <info>  [modem0/call0] call state changed: dialing -> terminated (unknown)

Have the AT Command Reference for the modem, +QLWURC is not anywhere in it so digging there is going to be fun.  I'm on a paygo plan and it is charging me for two minutes of use on every attempt.  Occasionally I hear a fraction of a second of what sounds like the greeting for the called number.  So it isn't just failing instantly, something happens first.

Random bits that might matter.   The phone has no data plan so data is disabled in the control panel.  The APN settings have been set to what defaulted after the SIM went active and then to what www.bestmvno.com recommended for H2O Wireless... or would if the UI allowed input of most of the recommended settings.  Even though the subscribed plan has "LTE" in the name, the phone insists on connecting to 3G, forcing 4G Only gets no service.  There IS 4G service from AT&T in the area.
