HOWTO: Receive SMS via 4G/LTE Huawei stick on Raspberry Pi 4 and forward them via Telegram

I live abroad and have only 1 sim card slot in my phone. It holds the SIM card of the country that I am in right now. But I also have another SIM card from my home country which receives my banking SMS codes. I can't afford to lose the "home" SIM card, so I decided to keep it in my house and forward the SMS messages to my main phone and computer via Telegram (just like Whatsapp, but so much better).

I also made a choice to use a 4G/LTE stick instead of 3G, because the 3G signal in my area is getting worse in worse due to operators upgrading their equipment.

Prerequisites

Raspberry Pi 4
Huawei E8372 (but can be any similar)

Step 1 - Get the Huawei card to work properly with Raspberry

Flutter setup without android studio

Dependencies

usb_modeswitch, usb_modeswitch-data
libusb1
libusb-devel(Fedora), libusb-dev(Debian based)

Configuration

By default, your linux box would register your Huawei E8372 as a Mass Storage device and not (somehow) as a modem. First, make sure you have the exace same device we're talking about. This can be confirmed by looking at two values using the following command (while the dongle is plugged in): As an elevated user:

    # lsusb | grep Huawei

Docker - How to cleanup (unused) resources

Once in a while, you may need to cleanup resources (containers, volumes, images, networks) ...

delete volumes

// see: https://github.com/chadoe/docker-cleanup-volumes

$ docker volume rm $(docker volume ls -qf dangling=true)

$ docker volume ls -qf dangling=true | xargs -r docker volume rm
