The easiest things are checking in phone menus if you need to activate
USB communication and try connecting it to a different computer with a
more recent kernel to see which driver gets bound to it.

usbserial isn't necessarily the right driver, in fact many phones are
handled by cdc_acm

the verbose output of lsusb can give you a hint of what your phone is
capable of:
lsusb --verbose -d 0fce:

with my phone the lines that tell me that I can try model=AT in
gnokii's config are:
      bInterfaceClass         2 Communications
      bInterfaceSubClass      2 Abstract (modem)
      bInterfaceProtocol      1 AT-commands (v.25ter)
