And if you do like this:

boot kernel without u3g loaded.

When kernel is booted, and card is plugged in, load u3g. What does it output 
then?

I think that there might be a USB port race. Could you try editing:

/sys/dev/usb/usb_device.c

Lookup:

                } else if (usb2_test_huawei_autoinst_p(udev, &uaa) == 0) {
                        DPRINTFN(0, "Found Huawei auto-install disk!\n");
                        err = USB_ERR_STALLED;  /* fake an error */
                }

Change it into:

                } else if (usb2_test_huawei_autoinst_p(udev, &uaa) == 0) {
                        DPRINTFN(0, "Found Huawei auto-install disk!\n");
                err = usb2_set_config_index(udev, USB_UNCONFIG_INDEX);
                err = 0; /* force success */
                }

And recompile kernel or only usb_core module.
