Hi,
I've got am I-mate SP3, running wince.
It works very well with every linux 2.6 kernel I tried (actually 2.6.13,
using the ipaq driver and synce. The phone is accessed trought ttyUSB0.
dmesg shows:
ipaq 1-1:1.0: PocketPC PDA converter detected
usb 1-1: PocketPC PDA converter now attached to ttyUSB0
in /proc/bus/usb/devices I read:
T: Bus=04 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#= 24 Spd=12 MxCh= 0
D: Ver= 1.00 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=ff Prot=ff MxPS=64 #Cfgs= 3
P: Vendor=0bb4 ProdID=0a51 Rev= 0.00

I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 2 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=ff Prot=ff Driver=ipaq

E: Ad=03(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 64 Ivl=0ms

E: Ad=82(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 64 Ivl=0ms
E: Ad=03(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 64 Ivl=0ms
But I have a big problem.
I should use as an USB gprs modem.
Since it is possible to configure it to be a (HTC) modem, using it's menu,
when I enable it to act as a modem on the usb port the content of
/proc/bus/usb/devices who refers to the phone changes to: I
T: Bus=01 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#= 37 Spd=12 MxCh= 0
D: Ver= 1.00 Cls=02(comm.) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS=64 #Cfgs= 1
P: Vendor=0bb4 ProdID=00cf Rev= 0.90
C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=c0 MxPwr=100mA
I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 3 Cls=02(comm.) Sub=ff Prot=ff Driver=(none)
E: Ad=82(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 64 Ivl=0ms
E: Ad=03(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 64 Ivl=0ms
E: Ad=86(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS= 16 Ivl=80ms
The hotplug does not work anymore using the ipaq driver (as I exspected),
and the device is not attacched to ttyUSB0.
I read Cls=02(comm.). I suppose there should be a way to use something
like cdc-acm driver. Unfortunatelly this driver does not seem to like my
phone.
All I get is a sad:
usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 39
Is there a way to solve this problem and to use I-mate SP3 smartphone as
gprs modem for linux or should I surrender?
Thanx in advance

As I said, cdc-acm is not satisfied with this kind of device. I do not know
how to make it work. Also usbserial didn't work. How could I make them work?
Please, note that the same command, used when the gprs modem is disabled (so i
am using ipaq module in this case), gives:

which is, for what I understand (not to mutch to say the truth) really
different.
Obviously I will be happy to make all the test you will ask me.
