Bug Description

Binary package hint: network-manager

Once the WWAN connection is established, I can disconnect from network, but cannot power the device off (WWAN diode is on). Even if I disable GSM Networking in network manager applet.
I could send manually command AT+CFUN=0 to power it off. But maybe there should be some other way. Like shortcut for toggling WLAN and Bluetooth connectivity in my thinkpad.
On Windows System in the pop-up activated by this shortcut (Fn+F5) I can also enable/disable WWAN radio.

I'm pretty sure this upstream commit pretty much fixes things, or at least it fixes the same issue for a number of mobile devices:

I'll include the patch and mark it as fixing this bug as I strongly believe it will; but please don't hesitate to reopen if it's found that there's still part of it missing. (Sorry, I can't test this myself, I don't own an Ericsson F3507g)
