If you reset the modem (modprobe -r (your_usb_controller), modem_run don't know the firmware is not there and refuse to load it again. Maybe you don't see anything because modem_run is started by hotplug before you try by hand. If I remember well, modem_run display an explicit message stating that the firmware is already loaded. You may try with modem_run v1.2 but I don't know how the whole package will install after v1.3.1 was installed. v1.2 scripts does not support hot-plug.
