NM/MM haven't changed upstream since then, so I'd suspect that your
distro updated one of the two, and it probably was MM.

Ok.

I also suspect that was MM was doing before was just ignoring any kind
of network registration and attempting to connect PPP no matter what,
which MM used to do for CDMA modems.

Probably so...

That only works if you're in range of a tower and your device is
activated on the carrier.  So MM now asks the modem whether it's
registered or not.  But unfortunately MM doesn't know how to ask the
motorola for registration information, if the motorola even provides
it.

I did find VZAccess for the e815, installed it, and took a look at the
drivers and libraries quickly.  It looks like it may be using WMC and
not AT commands, or at least I couldn't find any relevant AT commands
in the places I was looking.  Not sure yet...

I'm not quite sure what all this means, but thanks for looking into it.

Could you try the following?

The (quite voluminous at times) output follows:

You can get back to modem mode with AT+MODE=0.

Thanks for the detailed instructions.  I'm not sure what I did but NM is
no longer trying to connect when I plug the phone into the usb port.
Now only the usb detection messages appear in the log.  NM is running:

$ /etc/init.d/network-manager status
  NetworkManager.service - Network Manager
   Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/NetworkManager.service; enabled;
   vendor preset: enabled)
   Active: active (running) since Sat 2017-01-14 15:29:23 EST; 1 day 23h ago

           └─675 /usr/sbin/dnsmasq --conf-file --no-hosts --keep-in-foregroun….d

I did kill MM the first time I used minicom, but I've rebooted the
system since and MM is not restarting on its own.

Thanks again.
