Sierra Wireless EM7455: How to enable COM ports

Published February 1, 2017 | By zukota

Various EM7455 devices coming from different brands and sale channels are often configured differently. They come with different firmware versions installed, different settings, and some ports can be switched on or off. Sometimes COM ports are off when you get the device, but it is useful to have a COM port enabled in order to do extended diagnostics and alter some settings that are normally not possible.

So what do you need to enable the COM ports for your EM7455?

The instructions below are for Windows users. If you can easily find your way in Linux, just skip it and note that you only basically need to run ./swi_setusbcomp.pl –usbcomp=8 to enable COM ports. Follow this link for more info:  https://www.mork.no/~bjorn/MC7455-fix-orig.txt

Method 1. Recommended and safe.

Download and unpack the following image file: UbuntuLive.7z

Then, download and install UltraISO software. Trial mode is enough for our purposes. UltraISO download link.

Insert a spare empty USB Flash Drive into your laptop. Make sure it’s 8GB or more. Smaller drive won’t work because this image was prepared on a 8GB USB Flash drive.

Launch UltraISO and open the image file “UbuntuLive.ima” you downloaded previously. Use File -> Open menu to do that. Then, navigate to Bootable -> Write Disk Image. You will see the following window:

Make sure that the correct USB Flash drive is selected in Disk Drive field. Make sure it’s not your disk C: or any of your hard drives. Don’t change any other options. Then click “Write” to write the image to the USB Flash drive. After it’s done, close UltraISO.

Now you need to reboot your laptop and enter the BIOS. Make sure that the boot settings in your BIOS is set to “Legacy mode” and not to “UEFI mode”. Also make sure that booting from USB Flash drive is enabled in your BIOS. Then save your BIOS settings and exit from the BIOS. If all is correct, you will see Ubuntu Live boot menu. Select “Try Ubuntu without installing” in the menu and press ENTER. Ubuntu will boot and you should see the Ubuntu desktop:

Now, right-click on the desktop and select “Open Terminal”. Enter the following commands:

sudo -i

and then

./swi_usbcomp.pl

The sample output is shown below:

We can see that the current USB composition for the EM7455 is set to 9, which is MBIM only. We need to have MBIM and also COM ports for the AT commands and NMEA GPS data. So we need the USB composition 8.

Just enter the following command to set the USB composition to 8:

./swi_usbcomp.pl –usbcomp=8

The output is shown below:

Check again if the USB composition switch was successful:

Nice, it worked! All we need now is to reset the EM7455 in order for the new USB composition to take effect. Enter the following command:

./swi_usbcomp.pl –reset

Now you can close the terminal and reboot the Ubuntu. Remove the USB Flash drive from your laptop and restore the boot settings in your BIOS if you altered it. Now boot back to Windows and you’ll see 3 COM ports appear in the Device Manager:  AT port for commands, NMEA port for GPS data and Quallcomm diagnostic port. All of these ports can be very useful and I will describe working with them in one of my next posts.

That was the preferred method of enabling COM ports and you should try it first. There is also another way, which is not recommended, because it requires to install some Windows drivers that potentially can flash your EM7455 automatically without asking any permission. If you still need to do that, proceed with caution!

Method 2. Not really recommended.

First, note what brand your device is (look at the sticker) and check the device ID in the Windows Device Manager. There can be the following ID for the EM7455 module:

Then you’ll need to download your device’s corresponding driver:

Download Lenovo drivers
Download Dell drivers
Sierra Wireless Generic drivers

After downloading, unpack the driver by using 7Zip so you get the following files:

Dell driver:

Sierra Wireless driver:

For the Lenovo driver, it’s a little more complicated as 7Zip won’t recognize the file format to unpack it. To unpack it, first run the downloaded file:

Follow all the steps, including the path where you want the driver to be extracted. After extracting the drivers you will see the following dialog, make sure to untick “Install Sierra Wireless EM7455 Software now”:

After that, you will find the extracted driver at the location you specified:

Now, you need to run the extracted driver EXE file with USBCOMP=8 command line. For example:

Complete the driver installation, then wait for 20 minutes. The driver will install all corresponding files and change the USB composition, and COM ports will appear in your Device Manager. The EM7455 will restart several times during that process, do not reboot Windows before it’s finished. Just wait for 20 minutes after the driver is installed. It’s possible that the drivers will flash your EM7455 automatically with some newer software version during installation. Just allow it to do its work and DO NOT INTERRUPT the process. After the COM ports are enabled, you can uninstall the drivers, because they include a lot of unneeded bloatware, like some Windows services to change the firmware, etc. Well, the latter is up to you, I personally prefer not to have any extra program or service running in my laptop besides vanilla device drivers.

If you prefer to have just vanilla drivers, just run the extracted driver EXE file with EXTRACTDRIVERS=1 command line:

It will extract the drivers to some folder next to the driver EXE file:

Inside that folder, namely “Lenovo Mobile Broadband Driver Package” you will find a driver package ready to be installed. Just open the “Unrecognized device” properties in Device Manager and click “Install Driver”, then point Windows to the this extracted folder. The driver will be installed.

        Hi,

        I have Lenovo Sierra EM7455, with these H/W ID – 1199 : 9079

          Is your device visible in Windows Device Manager? Looks like Ubuntu cannot see your device at all. What is your current composition? Maybe you have MBIM disabled, in that case you cannot switch the USB composition as described in this post, because it requires a working MBIM interface.

          Try to check if Linux can detect your device at all:
          sudo ls -la /dev/cdc*
          and
          sudo dmesg | grep cdc

        • MIke on April 18, 2017 at 2:41 am

          Most likely your device is showing up as “cdc-wdm#” and not as the default “cdc-wdm0”

          You can find out what number your device is by typing on the following

          ls /dev

          Look for “cdc-wdm#”. Now you’ll need to type following (replace # with the number that shows up in your system)

          ./swi_usbcomp.pl –device=/dev/cdc-wdm#

          ./swi_usbcomp.pl –device=/dev/cdc-wdm2 –usbcomp=8

          Btw, zukota, you have a typo in your guide. You’re missing a hyphen for –usbcomp=8.

            Hey, Zukota & Mike!

            Thanx for the great tutorial – just a HEADS UP for others who got stuck with swi_usbcomp.pl “not doing anything”. It seems that this comment thread replaces normal hyphens (minuses) with a slightly more readible ndash HTML character.

            Mike already commented that the hyphen is missing, but it’s actually replaced.

            In other to fix this, just paste the -usbcomp=8 line and then replace the long minus with the proper one by typing it. Either that, or don’t copy paste but retype the command, it’s not that long 🙂

    Your solution is flawed for TP 8 users, as legacy boot is ‘disabled’.

    Any reliable way to activate COM ports on a TP8 without inadvertently flashing the EM7345 rom.

    Hi, thanks for this article! I see in your console output that the em7455 supports the QMI_VOICE MBIM service. Does this mean that this module finally supports ordinary incoming/outgoing cell phone calls in Win 10 pro? Maybe even with wake from standby on incoming calls? That would be great. Could you please share your experiences? In particular, is a special firmware or app required or is the Microsoft Phone app in Win 10 pro sufficient? Thanks!

      As far as I know, Sierra Wireless promised to include voice call functionality in one of the future firmware updates. Up until now, it’s not yet implemented. There was a thread on Sierra Wireless forums about that as far as I remember.

        ‎03-27-2017 01:20 AM – edited ‎03-27-2017 01:32 AM

        Lenovo why you lock the com ports on the Sierra Wireless EM7455 ?????

        USB composition for the EM7455 is set to 9, which is MBIM only. I need to have MBIM and also COM ports for the AT commands and NMEA GPS data. So I need the USB composition 8

        My question how to enable the com ports again ???

        thank you in Advance…

        Hello and welcome

        That’s not a Lenovo deal to lock the ports, more clearly, to choose appropriate default USB composition. MS and Sierra do that.

        To change default USB composition change Sierra wwan card drivers installation configuration and reinstall them. Edit the configuration.ini file within the drivers package:
        – [Default Values] section
        – USBCOMP=x parameter (choose 8 as you want).

        Thanks. I know the Sierra thread you mean. The above console output “supports 33 QMI subsystems: … 9 (2.1) ‘QMI_VOICE’ – Voice service” just sounded so hopeful/implemented. But its more waiting, I guess.

          This sounds related to an issue I have seen when using MultiSIM cards (multiple SIM cards tied to one phone number) in a phone and in a WWAN card on the laptop. When roaming the SIM card in the phone is capable of making outgoing calls but not receiving incoming calls. As per the carrier they can see in the logs that when a call comes in it is routed to a SIM in a Thinkpad but the call rather than the phone and the call ends up on voice mail (as the Thinkpad cannot take the call). I found that Lenovo provided new firmware for laptops with Huawei modems to support multi-sim carriers but nothing in the change log for Sierra EM7455. I tried the latest firmware from the 7.34.4643.0102 package without success. Cross checked the SIM cards and the functionality of the phone is restored when both SIM cards are in a phone and registered with the network, so it seems the WWAN card/Firmware is somehow involved. Netsh mbn sh cap int=* shows Voice class: No Voice.
          Could that be related ?
