@J Boyan: Please try a cold boot, then enter lsusb | grep 05c6:9204
Getting a result means that your modem is still uninitialized, as you know by now... Then do a lsmod | grep qcserial The number in the third column *should* be 0, but it's probably 1, which means that some process opened /dev/ttyUSB0. In case that the number is 0, running sudo /lib/udev/gobi_loader -2000 /dev/ttyUSB0 /lib/firmware/gobi should work. If it doesn't, please check the /lib/firmware/gobi directory: Are the firmware files still the same as they were when you copied them over? Still the same name (case is important!)? Any strange permissions on the files or on the directory path to these files? Perhaps you should check them with md5sum and compare with the firmware files on the windows side? On the other hand, if the module usage (number in the third column of lsmod output) is not zero, we'll need to find the offending processes. Enter sudo fuser /dev/ttyUSB0 to get a list of process IDs that opened /dev/ttyUSB0. ps -fp <PID> will identify the processes. If it's only gobi_loader, kill it pkill gobi_loader and try the "sudo fuser" command again. I'd be willing to bet that modem-manager will make its appearance...
