I have the same problem on 16.04. The usb mode switch does not trigger
properly.
The following workaround works for me:
To fix automatic switching, a new udev rule is required (do not modify the
original automatic rule in /lib/udev/rules.d/40-usb_modeswitch.rules). Create
the file /etc/udev/rules.d/39-usbmodeswitch-custom.rules with:
------------------------
# Hack: specifc rule for switching Huawei E3276 and similar modems
SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ACTION=="add", ATTRS{idVendor}=="12d1",
ATTRS{idProduct}=="1f01", RUN+="/etc/udev/rules.d/switch_usb_mode.sh"
------------------------
Next create an executable script (chmod +x)
/etc/udev/rules.d/switch_usb_mode.sh:
---------------------------
#!/bin/bash
# switch HUAWEI modem to modem-mode using Huawei new mode option J
usb_modeswitch -J -v 0x12d1 -p 0x1f01
---------------------------

Bug description:
Hello,
My Huawei LTE Stick (E3276) will not recognized correctly on Ubuntu 13.04
(Same problem on my Workstation).
How to Reproduce:
1.) Plug in the Huawei E3276 Stick to the USB Port
2.) Now should appear the PIN-Request but only a Errormessage appears:
"Unable to open a folder for Mobile Partner: Error when getting
information for file '/media/michael/Mobile Partner': No such file or
directory"
In the syslog i had found following lines (i hope it helps):
Jul 5 19:16:32 michael-X201EP udisksd[2421]: Mounted /dev/sr0 at

As Workaround i had try'd this Script:

and it works! :)
Thank you and
best regards,
michael
