As much as I hate to mess directly with the modem(s) - haven't had to do that since 1992 or so - it seems I finally should do that. Is there any short list of where and how to adjust settings, something like mmcli 101?

Thanks, guys. This will take me several days, and I have a feeling it won't be boring .
In the end, I may even achieve to have a, well, normal phone.
The firmware upgrade won't, I'm getting a

The status I got is

I have flashed new firmware to modem like 300 times and every time I have used Biktorgjs flashall script.
Please find instructions here (I think it is fairly easy)
https://github.com/the-modem-distro/pine.../tag/0.7.0
Or should I just boot into PmOS and do it there?

I have done it maybe 250 with PostmarketOS  .
So that should work - atleast with that Biktorgjs script.
But it should work with Manjaro, Arch and Mobian also.

It says directly in the output what to do:
Code: Problems: • Device requires AC power to be connected
If you connect AC (a power cable) it should work fine. Alternatively the flashall script will work too but fwupd is also very easy to use.

I did connect the power cable after that, but it still gives me this. It's charged 100%, so I know the power is on, and when I disconnect the cable and reconnect it, it plays the two ticks sound as always. and the get-devices command still reports this.
After a reboot, a slight change:

That error is a bit unexpected. You might want to join the bridged community channel for some further input: https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/Main_Page#Chat_Platforms
Believe it or not, this turned out to be a case of programmer's alzheimer. It was the /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/90-modem-eg25.rules
which I edited as described at couple of places, with
Code: ON ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", DRIVERS=="usb", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", ATTRS{idVendor}=="2c7c", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0125", ATTR{power/control}="on"
...except that I completely forgot that I did that on Mobian, not Manjaro Phosh. Now that I repeated it, it seems to work. Did only one quick test, though, and it passed. Will test some more, when I recharge it, and then, hopefully, mark this as solved.
