Ubuntu – Tata Docomo Photon 3g not working on 12.04 LTS

12.04devicesmobile-broadband

I recently upgraded from Tata Photon+ to Tata Docomo Photon 3G, however Ubuntu is not recognizing the device itself. I tried manually adding the device in Mobile Broadband section, using different APNs and Service provider names as suggested in few earlier questions. The device is ZTE MF 190 (hsupa).
What do i do?

Use sakis3g script

Sakis3G is a tweaked shell script which is supposed to work out-of-the-box for establishing a 3G connection with any combination of modem or operator.

It automatically setups your USB or Bluetoothâ„¢ modem, and may even detect operator settings.

It may work for you.

For details on sakis3g installation please refer to official Github page of sakis3g
