Removing usb-modeswitch and eject and doing lsusb i get:
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 12d1:1f01 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
Corrado
that means your device is definitely in storage mode;
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install usb-modeswitch
reboot
remove the stick a few times and do lsusb (wait at least 5 seconds or longer after inserting for usb-modeswitch)
you wanna get ID 12d1:14dc (if you have e3372s-153)
No joy.
I guess iâll get a new lte stick to see if mine is problematic.
thanks,

i donât remember to do anything other than inserting my usb stick (thought usbmodeswitch was already installed); i have a rpi3, on rpi2 it could be a power issue;
you could edit /etc/usb_modeswitch.conf and set SetStorageDelay to something like 6 or higher (donât forget to remove the #) and check that autoswitch is on
Autoswitch is on in config file, tried up to 20 on delay but still on same ID, nothing changes.

run:
sudo usb_modeswitch -v 12d1 -p 1f01 -M â55534243123456780000000000000011062000000100000000000000000000â
Run command, looks for default devices, finds it, looks like it does all its things correctly. Finds driver. Succesfully sends a message.
Tells me to look for chnges running lsusb, wich i do but no chngesâŚstill same id as before.
I used the â â around the long number, is it correct?
Corrado
yes â does work;
are you using a rpi2? you should add a powered usb hub in that case;
rpi3
Corrado
ifconfig doesnât list eth0/1 device with 192.168.8.1 after âsuccesfulâ modeswitch (wait 10 seconds after modeswitching - though device id stays the same)?
No it doesnât show any new eth with 192.168.8.1 ip.
Corrado
my last guess, iâm out of ideas right nowâŚ:
sudo usb_modeswitch -v 12d1 -p 1f01 -M â55534243123456780000000000000a11062000000000000100000000000000â
i donât really want to recommend flashing custom firmware because of the possibility of bricking your deviceâŚ
