Modem Manager updates for 12.04 LTS

Asked by hbchoong

To-date, cannot utilise Modem Manager GUI in 12.04 LTS, as it is understood that there is a 'bug' in Modem Manager version 0.5.2 that installed in Ubuntu 12.04 by default. On modem initialization it sets text mode instead of PDU mode for SMS, but newer modems can't work in this mode.
I understand the GUI works well and has been introduced into Saucy Salamander and later versions, but Modem Manager versions 0.6 or later has not yet been made available for 12.04 LTS users which enables its SMS functions etc to work.
It is hoped that an updated version of Modem Manager that addresses this and other bug fixes can be introduced into 12.04 LTS very soon for users like myself who have been looking out patiently for a couple of years for this functionality. Thanks in advance for the anticipated support... cheers!
