Huawei Mobile Partner |
|
Finally found Huawei mobile partner for linux. It's slightly modified and tested on X-Slacko only, although it should work on other puppies.
Mobile Partner is for Huawei USB modems. The menu entry is Network > Mobile Partner, the .desktop might need editing for the traditional puppy menu.
To remove properly, go to /usr/local/Modile_Partner/ and run UninstallMobilePartner, then unload the SFS.

I brought it down and tried it on Precise 5.7.1 and it seems to run OK .I can get to create a new profile.
So does your hex reader sfs.
Where would I find some guidance on what mobile phone does and how I use it? I have a huawei phone
Also I don't see a menu entry . Does it have one?
The sfs does not want to remove though .
I also tried VLC and it runs OK but it does not recognise the formats

Is there a codec file I can access to give it all the codecs also?

Not sure about VLC.

Hi, rg66.
Y'know, that's typical..! Up until around a year ago, I was running a Huawei K3565 USB 'dongle' on Vodafone. And it always miffed me that I could do the 'topping-up', and checking the balance, etc, in Whinedoze.....but you couldn't do it in Linux.
I tracked down the Huawei Mobile Partner software, but at the time, couldn't quite see what you were supposed to do with it. It's a moot point now, in any case; a year ago, I went and 'splashed out' nearly £70 (GBP) on a TP-Link mobile 'hot-spot' (following a suggestion from rcrsn51; I went with TP-Link, even though it's dearer, 'cos I've been using their stuff for years....and it just works).....which connects to the network just like a mobile phone on start-up, all automatically. All you need then is a wireless adapter.
Works beautifully, too.
Anyroad, it's nice to see Puppians now have yet another tool in the 'box. Nice one! Well done, mate.
Mike.

@ Mike, I also have a TP-link 3g wireless router, should start using it again but MP is easy for tracking usage.
@ puppytahruser, thanks for testing.
