Not sure where you got that mmcli command from, but it's not ok... :)

Unlocking PIN is just this:

 $> sudo mmcli -i 0 --pin=<PIN>

i.e. you don't need to specify the modem (-m) nor an additional action
(--enable-pin).

But to request a connection sequence, you can just use this:

$> sudo mmcli -m 0 --simple-connect="pin=XXXX,apn=whatever"
