Same problem on Dell Inspiron 6400, Ubuntu 14.04 i386 using HUAWEI USB
GPRS/EDGE/3G modem. Problems started after upgrade from 12.04.

When we can expect path to be release? It's quite a few kernel upgrades
passed since bug report....

  the lastest linux kernel update 3.13.0-24.46-generic 3.13.9 (maybe the
  previous one too) causes ModemManager to crash.

  sometimes, when using my usb modem (Huawei E367), it disconnects, and it becomes no longer detected by networkManager
  even lsusb command doesn't works (terminal waiting for command output) and shut-downing laptop doesn't complete

  this happens rarely since last days (~6 days), i'm not sure if the 2
  previous kernel update had the same problems.

  note: some updates i did since last week:
    usb-modeswitch to 2.1.1+repack0-1ubuntu1
    usb-modemswitch-data to 20140327-1
    network-manager to 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7
    modemmanager to 1.0.0-2ubuntu1

  that's a part of dmesg:
