ZTE MF637 internal parts " SmartBroPlug-It USB"

I was eager to put an external antenna to my USB modem ZTE MF637, an HSDPA/HSUPA 3.75G from SmartBro Plug-It. I found two internal antenna, one might be the GPRS/EDGE and the other one is for 3G. Though I can't determine well which antenna is 3G and the other. Both has different frequency of operation, whereas 3g UMTS is 2100Mhz and so on.

There is only one internal antenna connector, and which I think is for GPRS/EDGE only.

How to connect to a wireless network from the Ubuntu command line

Why use a friendly GUI when there’s cryptic shell commands out there?

Here’s how I connect:


$ sudo iwlist eth1 scan # eth1 is my wireless card.
eth1 Scan completed :
Cell 01 - Address: 0A:1D:19:15:C2:C1
ESSID:"airborneaccess"
Mode:Master
Channel:5
Frequency:2.432 GHz (Channel 5)
Quality=88/100 Signal level=-44 dBm Noise level=-81 dBm
Encryption key:off
Bit Rates:1 Mb/s; 2 Mb/s; 5.5 Mb/s; 11 Mb/s; 6 Mb/s

48 Mb/s; 54 Mb/s
Extra:tsf=0000003befa89182



That scan lists every available access point. The important piece of information to extract here is the ESSID. Now I set my wireless card up to connect to that ESSID:


$ sudo iwconfig eth1 essid "ESSID of your acceesspoint"


And finally, I tell my card to request an IP address from the router:


$ sudo dhclient eth1 # gimme an IP address plz!
There is already a pid file /var/run/dhclient.pid with pid 6911
killed old client process, removed PID file

bound to 192.168.1.112 -- renewal in 251284 seconds.


I can type these three commands way faster than waiting for the GUI to fire up. Here they are again, without all the output:


$ sudo iwlist eth1 scan
$ sudo iwconfig eth1 essid "ESSID of your acceesspoint"
$ sudo dhclient eth1


Sometimes, I need to connect to a network with a hidden ESSID. That’s just as easy. I just configure the ethernet card to connect to anything:


$ sudo iwconfig eth1 essid any # any is a keyword, not the name of an ESSID.


Finally, some networks require an access key. Sometimes, people can give you the human-friendly version, and you can type that in like this:


$ sudo iwconfig eth1 key s:password # translates to the hex for me.


Note the s: in front. That translates what I type into the hex jibberish.

Other times, people insist on giving you the goofy string of hex digits, so you can set it like this:


$ sudo iwconfig eth1 key ACDB-1234-1234-EFG2

ZTE MF637 HSUPA modem unlocking

Recent STF(search the forum) I found how to unlock my ZTE MF637 HSUPA 3g modem.

My intention is to look for MF627 unlocking technique for my SmartBro Plug It modem, I downloaded some apps and follow some instructions posted in some forums.

I did not succeed on MF627. Quite unhappy... I was thinking to put my next target my other modem which is model MF637 for unlocking. At first I'm afraid that it might brick the firmware, because there are some suggestions that it is only intended for MF627. Huhh... the hell...what I was thinking... and so I made up a choice to take the risk.

Before unlocking;

a. My Smartbro dashboard is installed and modem drivers, typical installation for SmartBro to work/connects.

b. Replace your Smartbro sim card (e.g. Globe or Sun SIM)

From one of the applications given to unlock MF627 is DC-Unlocker 2 Client v1.00.0460




1. Download the file DC-Unlocker 2 Client (dccrap.zip)
2. Unzip/Extract to any folder or to your desktop

Now Plug in your Smartbro modem with Globe or Sun SIM inserted on it.

3. run the dccrap.exe
4. Select Manufacturer = ZTE datacards
5. click "server"
6. Enter Username/Password of your choice then click "Check Login".
For me, I enter smartbro for both userb=name and password
7. Click on the the Magnify Glass icon to search your modem model automatically.
Dont need to Select model manually.

Just wait for the modem to sync, sometimes reading the datacard is slow.

8. Once your modem has been detected, Click "Unlocking" then UNLOCK it.

You will be then prompted unlocking successful!

Now, Open your Smartbro dashboard, it takes a while to sync in the modem.

From my experiment, I use Sun sim card. Once it catches the signal, you can notice it from the dashboard, signal .::| and the network name (SUN)

Then I configured my Network Settings to Sun Internet on my dashboard.
Name: Sun Wireless(any name of your choice)
Dial Number: *99#
APN: minternet

Set it to default.

Load up with i50 (24 hours unlimited) with 5 pesos regular load balance.

Then here it goes....


Now I wont have to use a strainer to catch that signal of Smart, because we are near to Sun cell site here in Laguna.


This is the internal antenna of SmartBro Plug-It USB modem



If you find this topic helpful to you, kindly post comments of appreciation.

Goodluck! and happy homebrewing(hacking)... =)

BTW, this USB modem MF637, I got it from an event for free.

Huawei AT-commandsThis is a featured page

note: Some devices like the Huawei K3715 seem to require AT-commands to be typed in capital letters!

There are a couple of options for disabling and re-enabling the following USB-components of Huawei USB-modems:

• modem (M)
• NAND-flashmemory drive (CD)
• microSD-drive (SD)
• PC UI interface (UI)
• network adaptor (N)
• smartcard (SC)

To disable or re-enable those components run the following AT-command, where n is one of the numbers from the table below:

AT^U2DIAG=n

Sometimes AT-commands will result in an "ERROR" - in this case keep reentering the AT-command until "OK" is being returned.

n	M	CD	SD	UI	N	SC	remarks	supported by	not supported by
0	+			+				E1750
1	+	+
3	+			+		+	won't work on devices without SC*
5		+		+	+		won't work on devices without N*
9		+			+	+	won't work on devices without N & SC*
10	+	+				+	won't work on devices without SC*
12		+		+	+		won't work on devices without N*
255	+	+	+	+	?	?	reset to factory defaults	K3715, E160E, K3565	E176, E1762, E1750
256	+		+	+			for most devices: everything enabled except for flashmemory; microSD-drive will be available under Windows even without drivers installed	K3715, E160E, E1762, K3565, K3765, E1750	E176
257	+	+	+
259	+		+	+		+	won't work on devices without SC*	E176
261		+	+		+	+	won't work on devices without N & SC*
265		+	+		+	+	won't work on devices without N & SC*
266	+	+	+			+	won't work on devices without SC*
267		+	+		+		won't work on devices without N*
268	?**	+	+	+	+**		won't work on devices without N* (?**)	E1750, K3565
276	+	+	+	+	+	?	reset to factory defaults	E1762, K3565, K3765	E1750

*) note: smartcard (SC) and network adaptor (N) are not present in most Huawei devices. Using an AT-command, that activates SC or N on a device, which hasn't these components will result in errors and so will be noneffective.
**) On modems E1750 and K3565 sending AT^U2DIAG=268 command makes active: M, CD, SD, UI and deactivates N (error in the table above?)

Driver Only Install
The following are the steps I have used to set up the modem with my Mac. This will only work with OS X Leopard – earlier versions, such as Tiger, will not work.

1. Remove the SIM PIN. This requires putting your SIM card in a phone and finding the setting to remove the PIN. If you are using an iPhone this setting is under Phone -> SIM PIN. This step is required as there is no way for OS X to send a PIN to your modem. If you are worried about security and don’t want to remove the PIN then stop here. You’ll need special software for your modem and this guide is not for you. Once you have removed the PIN, put the SIM card back in your Huawei.
2. Uninstall third-party software. This may not be necessary, but some software will force settings for your modem and interfere with your setup. Uninstalling it makes sure your settings will stick.
3. Install drivers for Snow Leopard. This is only necessary if you use OS X 10.6 or later – Leopard (10.5) users should ignore this step.Download these drivers from Huawei and install them.
4. Plug in your Huawei modem. It goes in the USB port 
5. Open System Preferences and go to ‘Network’.
6. Your Huawei modem should be listed in the pane on the left of the window. If it isn’t, click on the + and select your modem from the ‘Interface’ drop down menu. Then click on ‘Create’.
7. Highlight the Huawei modem in the pane on the left and select ‘Advanced’.
8. Change vendor to ‘Generic’. In the drop down menu, select ‘generic’ as the vendor and set ‘Model’ to ‘GPRS (GSM/3G)’. Now ‘APN’ will appear and you can specify whatever your network needs it to be. For most this will just be ‘Internet’ but it varies, especially with network partners like Wireless-G or Internet Solutions. After entering your APN (and other network settings should they be required) click on OK.
   
9. Set telephone number and credentials. This step might require some experimenting. Click on ‘Apply’ and then enter the Telephone Number. This will be *99# for most cellular networks, but could also be *99***1# depending on your location. For Vodacom I find that *99***1# works in most areas. But there are other numbers available, up to 4 (*99***4#) so try them all to find the one that works best for you. Usernames and passwords are generally not required, so make sure you have the right details.
   
10. Show modem in status bar. This is just a preference I have, so that I can easily connect without having to go into System Preferences.

And you’re done. If all went according to plan then you should now be able to just plug in your modem, wait for it to initiate and then connect without any extra software required. You might also want to grab an awesome little app called CheetahWatch that shows signal strength, provides usage tracking and a bunch of other useful features for Huawei modems on Mac

asus wl 500 premium Open WRT Howto huawei e220

Also habe alles versucht aber ddwrt liest keine modules auch das wichtigste nicht und zwar das usbserial.o zudem gibt es keine wichtigen logs aus und is trotz schöner weboberfläche nicht zu empfehlen wenn man selber was machen will was nicht in der oberfläche vorhanden ist!

ALSO SPRACH MEIN HIRN !!!!!!OPENWRT!!!!!!
Falls interesse Besteht könnte ich mein Backup auch wegschicken allerdings wärs besser wenn ihr das selber macht da ich nicht verantwortlich sein will falls was schief geht!

Original asus router firmware auf openwrt howto:

http://wiki.openwrt.org/OpenWrtDocs/...9%7C%28asus%29
Und wie gesag ich habe die rc6 white russian squiffs (complete) .trx genommen!
(die 0.9 geht warscheinlich auch aber ich habe ein upgrade gemacht und nicht neu installiert)


Was Benötigt wird
1x zeit....
1x router der open wrt unterstützt un usb ports hat http://wiki.openwrt.org/TableOfHardw...w&redirect=toh
1x huawei e220 (wird auch als easybox slim bezeichnet)
1x internet verbindung für den router nach dem flashen um die benötigten pakete (ipkg oder von der weboberfl. aus) installieren zu können zb ics von windows !und dhcpserver für windows!
1x beschreibung wie vi (der texteditor) funktioniert (eigentlich nur wie man speichert und editiert) http://www.linuxfibel.de/vi.htm
1x etwas englisch kenntnisse um openwrt auf den router zu flashen http://wiki.openwrt.org/OpenWrtDocs/Installing
instalation des openwrt nur für asuswl500gp: http://wiki.openwrt.org/OpenWrtDocs/...C%28wl500gp%29
Ich empfehle jedem der ein anderes modem als das huwei e220 benutzt zuerst mal unter einer linux maschine das modem ans laufen zu bekommen das man weis ob man treiber benötigt und dann mal schaut ob es die überhaupt für openwrt auch gibt!! Hilfe bekommt ihr hier http://forum.openwrt.org/
Ein ssh client zb. Putty

MAN SOLLTE AUF JEDEN FALL VON EINEM NEU AUFGESETZEN ROUTER ZU ARBEITEN BEGINNEN der mit SquashFS installiert wurde.

Falls irgendwelche leute maulen ich brauche aber die weboberfläche so wie bei ddwrt...
Es gibt auch eine bei openwrt nur nicht so schön!
Die hat zwar nur die Grundfunktionen wie macsperre und dhcp und so aber es reicht!Zudem kann man eine liste von packeten ansehen installieren und auch ändern! (wird noch verbessert stichwort X-WRT)


Das Howto: wird teilweise von mir noch etwas upgedatet was scripts betrifft und saubere Lösungen werden hierrein editiert

Meine vorlage: http://wiki.openwrt.org/MobileAPHowT...14281fb39fd5cf
vorgehen allerdings müssen noch folgende Packete installiert werden:

Als erster Installiert man mal die Packete über die Weboberfläche (im browser 192.168.1.1) am besten:
kmod-usb-ohci
kmod-usb-serial
kmod-Usb2
uhci
kmod-usb-core
fping
(ipkg install ) kmod-ppp
(ipkg install ) ppp
(ipkg install ) chat


danach:
reboot

So jetz machen wir ein:
dmesg
Und Schauen ob er USB ports 2 drinnen stehen hat (bei mir ungefähr 10 zeilen oben weiter)


Danach:
lsusb

Als output solltet ihr mindestens das hier bekommen:
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

Jetz anstecken des Huawei e220 modem

Lsusb
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 00? Device 00?: ID 12d1:1003 (kann auch 12d1:1001 sein)

Jenachdem was drinnsteht (in meinem fall *=3)das hängt ihr mit vi an :
Textinhalt-> insmod usbserial vendor=0x12d1 product=0x100*
rm /etc/modules.d/S60-usb-serial
vi /etc/init.d/S80ppp
chmod 777 /etc/init.d/S80ppp


reboot

Weiter geht es mit
lsmod
(zeigt laufende module an)Läuft das Usbserial???? dann stimmt alles


dmesg

br0: topology change detected, propagating
usb.c: USB disconnect on device 01:03.0-1 address 2
hub.c: new USB device 01:03.0-1, assigned address 3
usb.c: USB device 3 (vend/prod 0x12d1/0x1003) is not claimed by any active driver.
usb.c: registered new driver serial
usbserial.c: USB Serial support registered for Generic
usbserial.c: Generic converter detected
usbserial.c: Generic converter now attached to ttyUSB0 (or usb/tts/0 for devfs)
usbserial.c: Generic converter detected
usbserial.c: Generic converter now attached to ttyUSB1 (or usb/tts/1 for devfs)
usbserial.c: Generic converter detected
usbserial.c: Generic converter now attached to ttyUSB2 (or usb/tts/2 for devfs)
usbserial.c: USB Serial Driver core v1.4

so jetz sollten /dev/usb/tts/0[/COLOR] 1 und 2 vorhanden sein!

So es müssen immer alle 3 TTS erkannt werden sonst funktionierts nicht bei mir funktionierts nur wenn ich modem anstecke und in die konsole reboot eingebe!

(pinabfrage würde ich auf windows mit huawei tool deaktivieren und auf 3g bevorzugt stellen oder auf nur 3g wenn man nur hsdpa will (hsdpa muss empfangbar sein)

Jetzt die einwahlscripte erstellen die können von netzbetreiber her etwas variieren was USERNAME PASSWORT und REMOTENAME angeht

mkdir /etc/ppp/peers

Hier meine Einwahlscripts:

hier sieht man die ip von ppp0 und dann schauen ob google ereichbar ist
ping www.google.at


Nvram umschreiben das alle anderen rechner auf das inet vom router zugreifen können:
nvram set wan_device=ppp0
nvram set wan_ifname=ppp0
nvram commit

Das sich das modem automatisch verbindet muss moch in /etc/init.d/S80ppp

pppd call e200 angehängd werden

reboot



FERTIG

Falls man auch usb nutzen möchte

fat
vfat
xfs
ext2
ext3
kmod-usb-uhci
kmod-usb-core
kmod-usb2
kmod-usb-storage

über web installieren

Der router darf erst usb-storage nach dem Modem laden denn wenn das storage einmal geladen ist kommt das modem nichtmehr richtig hoch!

!!!!!!!!!Alle Module werden normal in /etc/moduls.d geladen dort die "usb-storage" datei bearbeiten (vor jeder zeile ein # eintragen) zb. -> #usb-storage.o

rebooten und schaun ob sie eh nicht geladen werden mit lsmod
da sollte jetz kein usb-storage stehen

Geladen sollen sie beim neustart in /etc/init.d ein S99usbautomount erstellen mit folgenen inhalt:

Man kann auch über die Weboberfläche "vnstat" instalieren um den Traffic im auge zu behalten: http://home.versatel.nl/janssenmaj/trafficmonitor.html
Man muss! alle vlan1 mit ppp0 ersetzen

(wird nach jedem reboot gelöscht da /var/ sich im temp befindet allerdings kann man einen link setzen auf /jffs/ macht aber den speicher Voll und ist nur zu empfehlen wenn man weiss was man TUT)
#

Known Problems:
Das modem muss eingesteckt sein vor dem start des routers da hotplug es zu früh anspricht und es nicht richtig eingebunden wird!
(dmesg tty1,tty2,tty0 muss vorhanden sein ansonsten reboot eingeben)
Ich habe das so gelöst das wenn /dev/usb/tts/1 nicht vorhanden ist solle er:
sleep 30 und rebooten (heist das modem muss immer angesteckt sein sonst rebootet er die ganze zeit und die 30sek zeit hat man um das wieder rauszulöschen falls es nicht mehr gewünscht ist!)
Falls das gewünscht wird dann am schluss der /etc/init.d/S99done anhängen

#
if [ -c /dev/usb/tty/2 ]
then ( pppd call e220 )
else ( sleep 30 && reboot )
fi
#

Troubleshooting:
Wie kann ich wieder über den wan port einen "normales" modem einstecken:
(bzw. kann auch verwendet werden falls man vergessen hat packete zu instalieren und im nachhinen wieder internet über den Wan port brauch für die installation)
nvram set wan_device=vlan1
nvram set wan_ifname=vlan1
nvram commit
reboot nicht vergessen
-
Der router kann zb. google pingen aber ich nicht von meinem rechner aus der hinterm router sitzt (das vergessen?)

Nvram umschreiben das alle anderen rechner auf das inet vom router zugreifen können:
nvram set wan_device=ppp0
nvram set wan_ifname=ppp0
nvram commit
-
Ich bekomme keine 3 ttys hoch
/etc/modules.d/ darf keine S**usbserial haben bzw muss sie leer sein
/etc/init.d/ müssen alle datein ausführbar sein (ls-l zum prüfen x muss dabei stehen)
chmod 777 /etc/init.d/S80ppp
nochmal versuchen.
Und ganz wichtig router ausstecken router einstecken einlogen "reboot" eingeben. Jetz muss es da sein ansonsten nochmal das obige checken.


Viel spass haben nicht vergessen und bitte fehler melden ich übernehme keine verantwortung für eure hardware!!!!!!

Huawei Mobile Partner

create connection profile

1. After starting "Mobile Partner" go to "Tools", "Options".
   
2. In the following window chose "Profile Management" on the left. Then click the "New" on the upper right.
   
3. Now enter the following details:
   • As "Profile Name" enter some title for your connection (e.g. "Vodafone").
   • Under APN chose "Static" and enter your operator's accesspoint in the "APN" field. (For example "pp.vodafone.co.uk" if you are using a British Vodafone PAYG SIM)
   • Don't change the remaining fields unless you know what you do.
4. Now click "Save" to save your new profile and close the windows by clicking "OK" (lower right).
   Confirm the following question "Do you want to save the changes" with "Yes".
   
5. Now chose "Connection" in Mobile Partner. There you should see your new profile. Now you can connect through the newly created profile by clicking "Connect". As soon as the connection has been established, the button is renamed in "Disconnect" and serves to disconnect your connection.

plugins
Mobile Partner has several plugins integrated, which are mostly not activated by default. Some can be enabled by editing the file C:\Program Files\Mobile Partner\config\PluginsConfig.xml.

PluginsConfig.xml
The file is build in the XML-format and consits generally of four sections:

1. <devices> ... </devices>In the devices section <item>-tages assigns a name to each device model according to it's product/hardware ID (productID can be found unter Tools / Diagnosis after starting Mobile Partner) and a description, which doesn't seem to be of relevance.
   e.g. a tag assigning the name "E180" to the device with the productID "E180" and some description looks like this:
   <item name="E180" productid="E180" describe="3G Data Card"/>
   
   The devices section usually contains dozens of devices, however only those applying for your device are necessary. The remaining code is useless unless and can be deleted.
   
2. <common><plugin> ... </plugin></common>Next there is the plugin section, which again contains <item>-tags, that define all the plugins. However it seems like you can activate plugins (e.g. CallPlugin and CallUIPlugin) even if they are not listed here. So the function of this section is unclear.
   
   
3. <device name="???"> ... </device>After the </common> tag the device section starts, which will define the available plugins for each model. To add the voice-call plugin (consiting of three plugins) for the E169, the following code is used:
   <device name="E169">
   <plugin>
   <add name="CallPlugin" clsid="8FC7A17B-EA76-4e6e-872D-9AAC222C8B03"/>
   <add name="CallUIPlugin" clsid="58A0343A-93DB-4ea2-92B4-C51589629381"/>
   <add name="CallLogUIPlugin" clsid="1FCAC0FF-9E87-450f-8258-1155D7696571"/>
   </plugin>
   </device>
   
   The device section usually contains dozens of devices, however only those applying for your device are necessary. The remaining code is useless unless and can be deleted.
   
4. <customize name ="???"> ... </customize>The customize section contains changes on the activation or deactivation of plugins, which will overwrite definitions in the device section (above) if your version of Mobile Partner is customized/branded.
   As KTF (presumably a Korean operator) doesn't want their subscribers to have SMS-functionality in Mobile Partner, they remove is by the following code:<customize name="KTF_C148">
   <plugin>
   <remove name="SMSPlugin" clsid="AB349C02-A88F-4ef5-A44A-F178B9FAAF35"/>
   <remove name="SMSUIPlugin" clsid="ED395DF6-E3BA-478e-8AE9-D8A1BF090214"/>
   </plugin>
   </customize>
   
   Of course one could also use an <add>-tag here and add plugins instead of removing them (as showed above).
   
   The customization is dependant on the operator ID (in the example above "KTF_C148"), which is defined in the C:\Program Files\Mobile Partner\SysConfig.dat file, which has a section like this:
   [customize]
   operator=O2_C40
   simtype=SIM/USIM
   uimtype=UIM
   
   This example shows the operator ID "O2_C40", which stands for O2 Germany's prepaid product "O2 Loop".
   On unbranded versions of Mobile Partner the operator ID is "common", so the section in SysConfig.dat would look like this:[customize]
   operator=common
   simtype=SIM/USIM
   uimtype=UIM
   
   If you edit SysConfig.dat and replace the operator ID by "common" (like above), you will immediately have an unbranded version of Mobile Partner.

voice-call plugin
Since only some Huawei devices support voice-calling, this plugin can only be used properly if supported by your hardware. Currently the following devices are confirmed to support voice calls:

• E169, E169G
• K3715
• K3565

Other devices like the E160/G/E/X can establish calls, but there is no audio. Currently it's unclear if this is caused by hard- or software and so if this can be patched.



customization / operator branding
As mentioned above, the file C:\Program Files\Mobile Partner\SysConfig.dat sets an operator ID, which will determine if Mobile Partner is operator-branded or not.
An operator branding is defined by some ID, which is "O2_C40" in this case:

[customize]
operator=O2_C40
simtype=SIM/USIM
uimtype=UIM

While the unbranded version set the operator ID to "common":
[customize]
operator=common
simtype=SIM/USIM
uimtype=UIM
This operator ID is already important during installation of branded versions of Mobile Partner, since the data.bin file (can be opened with WinRAR), which is part of the setup files, contains a folder named by the operator ID. This folder (e.g. "O2_C40") contains dozens of files, which will be installed instead of the common files, which would be installed for an unbranded version. However branded setup files do also contain the common files, so one could modify the SysConfig.dat file inside the data.bin file in order to make setup install an unbranded verison.






How to Use an STK Function????

The Mobile Partner supports the SIM Application Toolkit (STK) functions.
I
The STK functions are supplied by the network service provider.
Procedure
Step 1 Choose Tools > Sim Toolkit.
Step 2 Select the required STK function

Vodafone K3565
Vodafone sells two different versions of the K3565:

• K3565-H which is a Huawei E160X (Rev.2 models carry the hardware ID "K3565")
• K3565-Z which is produced by ZTE (no equivalent in ZTE's product range)

Those two version are not only produced by two different companies, but they are also technically totally different. Since the K3565-Z was introduced by Vodafone only in 2009, the earlier version from Huawei was only designated K3565 (without "-H"). However some sellers omit the extension (-H or -Z), so you should be careful during purchase and better check the label on the back of the box.




Debranding Vodafone K3565-Z
The K3565-Z comes with an installer for Vodafone's dashboard ("Vodafone Mobile Connect" ) in it's flashmemory, which will start installation of the dashboard automatically after plugging the modem into your computer. The Vodafone dashboard takes up relatively much resources on your system and it refuses to connect to other networks than Vodafone's. So if you want to use another network or just a thinner dashboard, you need to use an unbranded one. You can either just download and install such on your computer (see "Dashboard" below) or, if you want your device to have ready installation files for an unbranded dashboard permanently, use one of the following debranding methods:



soft method
With this method the flashmemory will remain untouched, it's easily reversible and so you won't risk to void your warranty. However you will permanently need a microSD-card, if you want your dashboard & drivers on the stick.
Basicly you just switch off the flashmemory, from which usually the branded dashboard is being installed after plugging in, and instead store the installation files for an unbranded dashboard on a microSD-card in the microSD-slot. Afterwards the microSD-card/drive will replace the flashmemory.

1. Disable the flashmemory by executing the following AT-command: AT+ZCDRUN=8 (see: how to execute AT-commands)
   note: in some cases you might first need to unmount the flashmemory by "safely remove hardware" and stop the "USB Mass Storage Device" in order the AT-command to take effect.
   
   
2. Put a microSD-card in your microSD-drive an format it with FAT32
   
   
3. download this file (containing an unbranded dashboard inlcuding drivers and autorun files)
   
   
4. extract the contents from the downloaded RAR file to the root of the microSD-drive
   
   
5. That's it. After unplugging and replugging your modem, the unbranded ZTE dashboard should install automatically from your microSD drive.

To revert this soft debranding just remove or format the microSD-card and reactivate the flashmemory by executing the following AT-command: AT+ZCDRUN=9 (see: how to execute AT-commands)




hard method
please note that by debranding your device by the hard method you probably lose your warranty!
With the hard method the flashmemory of the modem will be changed persistently. This is also reversible, if you backup the original content of your flashmemory (also described in the following instructions). However if your device breaks down before or during restoring the original content of the flashmemory warranty claims may be refused.

1. Install the original dashboard from your device, because later operations will require all drivers to be installed.
   
   
2. Download QPST and install it.
   
   
3. Click "Start", "Programs", "QPST" and start "QPST" Configuration" and select the "Ports" tab
   
   
   
4. Now click "Add New Port"
   
   
   
5. Find and chose the port labeled "USB/QC Diagnostic" and click "OK".
   note: If more than one "USB/QC Diagnostic" port appears, you have to find the correct one by trying each one. If you got the wrong one the "Phone selection" in step 7 won't show the "Unknown" phone but will be empty.
   
   
   
6. Chose "Start Clients" from the menu and click "EFS EXPLORER"
   
   
   
7. In the following dialog you should see an "Unknown" phone, which you select and then confirm with "OK".
   
   
   
   Now QPST will read the EFS filesystem of your device:
   
   
   
8. When QPST has finished reading it will show up several files. Now you might first want to back up the existing content of the flashdrive, which is stored in the file "ZTEMODEM.ISO". Therefore right-click "ZTEMODEM.ISO" chose "Copy File from Phone"...
   
   
   
   
   and chose a destination where the file should be saved and click "OK".
   
   
   Now QPST will backup ZTEMODEM.ISO to the selected folder, which may take up to ~30 minutes.
   note: keep this downloaded backup version of ZTEMODEM.ISO in a safe place - you might need it one day!
   
   
   
9. After the backup has finished, right-click "ZTEMODEM.ISO" and select "delete".
   
   
   
10. After the old ZTEMODEM.ISO has been deleted, insert this one (NEW VERSION August 2010) [mirror 1 - mirror 2 - mirror 3 - mirror 4 - mirror 5] by drag & drop (extract ISO from RAR first!). It contains the unbranded "ZTE Join Air" dashboard (version 1.00.0B02, English and German) with preconfigured settings for most German operators, a separate "Driver" folder with drivers (including installer DPInst.exe), MWconn 5.6 (an alterative dashboard) and MDMA 1.0.0.30a, a monitoring tool with USSD-support. Unfortunatley it lacks MacOS-support.
    backup of original ZTEMODEM.ISO: ZTEMODEM.ISO from Vodafone K3565-Z (VMC 9.4.2.14731)
    
    
    
11. Wait until the new ZTEMODEM.ISO has been written to your device and then close QPST EFS Explorer. When asked wether to reset the device click "Yes".
    
    
    
    
12. That's it. Now your modem should contain the new dashboard.

rebrandingTo rebrand your device just follow the debranding instructions above but use the backup of original ZTEMODEM.ISO: ZTEMODEM.ISO from Vodafone K3565-Z (VMC 9.4.2.14731).


dashboard
Instead of permanently debranding your modem (and so probably losing warranty), you can also manually install and use an unbranded dashboard from any ZTE modem. However since the drivers for all other ZTE devices are incompatible with the K3565-Z, the drivers, which will be installed with those unbranded dashboards won't work. So you either need to additionally install drivers for the K3565-Z manually or download and install this modified unbranded dashboard, which will install appropriate drivers for the K3565-Z right "out of the box": download here



drivers
Windows drivers only: download here


installation and usage under MacOS X
Following is tested on OS X 10.6.2.

• Download the connection manager (from this website). It is for some device called MF626, which seems to be the same.
  Do not install this package but instead only ./Contents/Packages/drv.pkg (can be reached by e.g. right-click - show package contents).
• Now plug in the UMTS-stick and wait for the ZeroCD-crap to be mounted. Eject the device in the Finder. Ignore any "found new devices"-messages for now.
• Open Terminal.app and run sudo screen /dev/tty.ZTEUSBATPort.
  Type: at+zcdrun=8, press enter. You should receive "Close autorun state result(0:FAIL 1:SUCCESS):1". The annoying flash-drive is now disabled.
• Now open System Preferences and choose "ZTEUSBModem". Go through Advanced - Modem and choose "Generic" as vendor and "GPRS (GSM/3G)" as device. Don't forget to enter the APN if your provider requires you to do so.
• Use *99# as phone number.

Linux after debranding via the Hard method
If you have removed the ZTEMODEM.iso you will have problems under Debian Lenny
To solve this issue run following script to initialize the Modem.

debserver:/# lsusb
Bus 005 Device 003: ID 19d2:0016 ONDA Communication S.p.A.
debserver:/# ./script.sh 19d2 0016

Script:

#!/bin/bash
VID="$1"
PID="$2"
PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
modprobe -a option
echo "0x${VID} 0x${PID}" > /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/option1/new_id

dismantle
Dismantling the K3565-Z is easy and doesn't pose any difficulties.

1. Remove seals next to the USB-connector and open both screws.


2. Open housing by separating both halves of the housing with your fingernail.

executing AT-commands under WindowsThis is a featured page

how to execute AT-commands under Windows
In order to execute AT-commands, you first have to install drivers for your 3G device. During driver installation several specific virtual interfaces will be created, which will appear under Windows as serial COM ports or as a modem.
After drivers have been installed, you need to find out the required COM port in Windows device manager, as described below:

1. Open the Windows device manager
   
   • Windows XP:
     
     1. Click Start, click Control Panel, click Performance and Maintenance, and then click System.
     2. On the Hardware tab, click Device Manager. Double-click the type of device you want to change.
        
   • Windows Vista:
     
     1. Click Start, click Control Panel, click System and Maintenance, and then click Device Manager.‌ If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
        
2. In Windows device manager you will find the required port depending on your modem's manufacturer:
   
   • Huawei devices:
     
     • expand the "Modems" section
     • right-click the item "HUAWEI Mobile Connect - 3G modem" (or similar) and select "properties"
     • click the "modem" tab
     • There you should see the "port", which is the required port.
   • Sierra Wireless devices:
     
     • expand the "Ports (COM & LPT)" section
     • There you should see an entry called "Sierra Wireless AT Commnd Port (UMTS) (COM ?)", where ? is the required port.
   • ZTE devices:
     
     • expand the "Modems" section
     • right-click the item "ZTE Proprietary USB Modem" (or similar) and select "properties"
     • click the "modem" tab
     • There you should see the "port", which is the required port.
3. Now that you know the port, where to address your AT-commands to, you just need a terminal application by which you can send those commands to your device. The best choice is perhaps PuTTY, a universal terminal program also capable of Telnet and SSH, on which the following instructions will base. So first download putty by right-clicking this link and saving it to some folder on your harddisk, where you will find it later again (perhaps just on the desktop).
   
   
4. After having downloaded putty.exe, make sure all other applications (especially dashboards like Huawei's Mobile Partner, Vodafone Mobile Connect, MWconn or MDMA), that may access your device are completely closed, because otherwise such applications will occupy the required COM port.
   
   
5. If you are sure, that no other application, that may access your device, is running, start PuTTY by doubleclicking putty.exe
   
   
6. Not the PuTTY Configuration appears:
   
   • select "Serial" as connection type
   • under "Serial line" enter the COM port, which you have looked up earlier (e.g. COM6)
   • click on "Open" to establish the terminal connection to your device
     
     
     
7. Now you will see the following empty black window:
   
   
   
8. To check if everything is working type ATZ (= resetting the device) and press [enter] and your modem should answer with "OK" (depending on if command echo is enabled or not, you might not see what you are typing, so don't wonder if the screen remains unchanged while typing).
   Afterwards try the command ATI [enter], which will output information on your device:
   
   
9. If you have come so far, you are ready for entering just any AT-command you desire to.
