Huawei Usb Com 1.0 Driver Windows 10 Pro 64 Bit
Nayra Wellinghoff
I accidentally downloaded some kind of malware the other day. I enabled some cracked video editing software to run and it basically shut down my windows security and defense system so that I was unable to run virus checks, etc. It's all been cleaned up and sorted after a reinstallation of Windows 10 with the Media Creation Tool. My windows defender is back up and running smoothly, along with real-time virus protection. Whatever I did the other day in trying to resolve that, created a new problem however...
"Windows created a temporary paging file on your computer because of a problem that occurred with your paging file configuration when you started your computer. The total paging file size for all disk drives may be somewhat larger than the size you specified."
I don't have an org. This is a personal laptop and I'm the sole user/admin. Not sure why it's displaying that, but I did mess around with the registry and command prompts a bit the other day while trying to resolve the security/virus protection hijacking that shut down my windows defender. I've since reinstalled windows 10, so that shouldn't have made any lasting impacts but apparently something is screwy because of the above issues...
If you don't have a valid copy of Windows, or you haven't activated it, then of course you will experience a massive performance drop. If you don't have a valid key, you will have to buy one (typically OEM keys are the cheapest, but tied to the motherboard, eg, they cannot be moved to another device in any way shape or form, meaning it is a node locked license.)
NOTE: Smartscreen will close or block applications / scripts, sometimes even drivers (false positive.) Obviously you can disable smartscreen if you really wanted to, but then of course you need a 3rd-party post-paid AV tool.
@Oliver_BesnerYou most likely do not have chipset drivers installed (update your drivers,) and your page file is probably disabled. You could re-enable it, restart the computer, and then disable it again. This is ONLY if you want it to stay disabled. The page / swap file has to reside on a fixed volume which is mounted as soon as the primary bootloader (UEFI / BIOS) passes control to the secondary bootloader, which in turn passes control to the Operating System itself.
NOTE: Typically the OEM (Huawei in this case,) supplies a fully customized driver on their support page. Anything you can get off of the device manufacturer's page, are often newer, more generic / have no customization. If it's an APU or some type of Hybrid / All-In-One Tablet / Laptop CPU, then typically you can only use the OEM's website (Huawei, HP, Dell, etc) to get drivers. This is if it's a pre-built computer. In any other situation you would individually download drivers from each vendor based on the parts you have selected (if you built / assembled it yourself.) In some situations, if the motherboard has integrated graphics / audio, then you might have to rely on the support page for drivers (but you could get similar results with generic drivers from the device manufacturer.) Often the ones packaged with the motherboard have a special UI, or it's some type of hybrid peripheral where they license certain features (Soundblaster / Realtek hybrid, etc.) To duplicate the same level of functionality, you would have to replace it with a separate application (Realtek Audio Control,) or use the built-in Windows UI / interface, with a newer generic driver from the device manufacturer. I would use the Intel drivers on the Intel website, instead of the Huawei ones (often they are newer.) For hybrids and All-In-One Tablet PCs, typically the device manufacturer releases a driver, and some amount of associated IP, which is bound by a non-disclosure agreement. In this case, only the OEM, or Huawei, is able to provide updates (none would exist on the device manufacturer's website anyways.)
I can setup a Mobile Broadband connection in Network Manager. But it is not connecting to the Internet. The connecting symbol is shown for a long time and then stops.
But it can connect, only after connecting it to the Internet in Windows and then booting into Ubuntu by restarting. If i shut down the system and then boot into Ubuntu (or) Unplug the device and replug it, it doesn't work. Eventhough I can get it detected using usb_modeswitch anytime, the connection is not established.
In Ubuntu Studio 12.10, I installed huawei driver and it worked without any additional tweak.In Ubuntu Studio 15.10, it just worked right after I plugged it. I didnt do anything to get it work.In Ubuntu Studio 16.04, I did the simple steps of usb_modeswitch and modprobe to get it work. There are a number of articles and questions in forums about this. But still I want to mention how I did it and in a really detail manner. It involves three simple steps as follows,
You can use any other computer with Ubuntu and internet connection. Open synaptic packet manager and type usb-modeswitch in search field and in the result mark both the packages. And while you do that, it will ask whether to mark related dependency packages. click 'Mark'. Then go to file and click 'Generate Package Download Script' and select the directory you want to save the script and give the script a name like 'deblist' and save. Then go to the script's directory. open a terminal there and type,
Where the package1.deb, package2.deb, package3.deb and so on.., should be replaced with the names of the downloaded packages. This should install the packages. The steps above are generic for any software.
usb_modeswitch command should include a switching method/message. Here the switching method is specified by -J and this is the standard Huawei switching method. It varies with different device manufacturers. Type man usb_modeswitch in the terminal for more information.
Now type usb-devices in the terminal and you should now see a new 'product id' and many interfaces(If#) for your device listed. Most of interfaces(If#) should be using the 'option' as driver. Some of these interfaces are used for internet connection and most of the time, the one used for connection has different driver like 'huawei_cdc_ncm'.
Now try connecting to the internet by setting up a 'Mobile Broadband Connection' using the 'Network Manager' of Ubuntu. If it is connected, then your job is done. but if it is not, then you may proceed to the next step.
Now try connecting the modem to the Internet. Mostly it should be connected but if it doesnt, then unplug and try doing the step 3 again. Still if it doesnt connect, sometimes the process of automating these commands can connect the modem to Internet.
I found out that even though Ubuntu has cdc_mbim driver, it couldn't generate two interfaces(If# in usb-devices command) out of the one that is used for connection in Ubuntu. But it seems Windows can. So when restarting the interface informations are still in the modem I guess but when switching off and turning on, it is not.
So when booted into Ubuntu it detects those interfaces and selects the right driver(cdc_mbim). But not necessarily two interfaces are needed for connection. Even one interface with right driver is enough. Which means no need to boot into windows first if the right module/driver is loaded properly(option module).
