The command from comment #13 will do nothing but send a standard device reset control message to the modem. Any tool using libusb could do that, so it's not a genuine property of usb_modeswitch. It was added just for convenience.

And the workaround is quite logical: if something is screwing up the device, a clean reset will make it work again. This is *not* a mode switch, the device stays in modem mode obviously.

BTW, there is no need to provide a target ID in the command since this is no mode switch with success check.
Just run "sudo usb_modeswitch -v 0x12d1 -p 1003 -R".
