Updating from 20.04 or lower

Updating your SMS modem from Ubuntu 20.04 or lower might result in the following message: "No new release found"

This is fixed by replacing the text in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/odroid.list using WinSCP with the follwing:

deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ jammy main universe restricted

deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ jammy main universe restricted

deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ jammy-updates main universe restricted

deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ jammy-updates main universe restricted

deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ jammy-backports main restricted

deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ jammy-backports main restricted

deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ jammy-security main restricted

deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ jammy-security main restricted

deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ jammy-security universe

deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ jammy-security universe

deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ jammy-security multiverse

deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ jammy-security multiverse

And replace the text in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/odroid.list with the following:

deb http://deb.odroid.in/5422-s/ jammy main

Certificate not updating when uploading new certificate

Some certificate providers give out certificates which the Ubuntu modem will reject, because it uses legacy protocols.

This can sometimes be avoided if you install the certificate on your local machine, and then export it again with TripleDES encryption.
