Wammu is now searching for phone:

What does this mean? How to overcome this error?



Thanks in advance.

This means that your user don't have permissions to access to /dev (devices).



Try: sudo wammu



to gain permissions to access to devices



Another thing you can do is to put your user in bluetooth group system
