Same for me, so your pin mileage may/most likely vary…

I didn't get zhone working with ogsmd recently as it spammed
frameworkd.log with the following messages and generated
an enormous amount of CPU usage on the way…
[…]
ogsmd.modem.abstract ERROR    could not open channel CALL, retrying in 2 seconds
ogsmd.modem.abstract ERROR    could not open channel MISC, retrying in 2 seconds
ogsmd.modem.abstract ERROR    could not open channel UNSOL, retrying
in 2 seconds
[…]

I therefore installed fso-gsmd from experimental, disabled ogsmd
and otimed (seems to have problems with new dbus api too)
and patched zhone a bit [0] so it seems to work with the new dbus api.
(I use a heavily self-patched zhone in general for the sake of learning a
bit of crappy python, so it is maybe more broken than "just"
register in network, callstatus and messagebook)
