This .fdi file will only take care that your device has the "modem"
capability with the v.250 command set. we cannot know more about the
modem and there is still code missing to go on from there to decide
whether its GSM or CDMA. so when you add the .fdi file what you can do
to verify is that you look at lshal output and seeif your modem has a)
'modem' in the capabilities field next to 'serial' and b) that it has
the v.250 command set (though not sure if you see that in lshal).

could you attach your lshal after using his .fdi?
