Hi Tamir2,

follow the lines below to get E3531 working with Ubuntu 12.04.

1. connect E3531 to the Ubuntu 12.04 PC.

2. Check vid : pid of the modem using $lsusb . It should be 12d1:1506

3. Load the option drivers to ram using $modprobe -v option

4. register vid : pid of the modem to the option driver using $echo "12d1 1506" >/sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/option1/new_id

5. check if ttyUSB device is detected for the modem or not using $dmesg | tail

6. Configure your "Mobile Broadband" in "Network Connections" on the right top corner of the Ubuntu 12.04. Set dial no,apn , user, pass ....
also enable mobile broadband.

It should be working all ok with this setting.
