Unhappy 3G USB modem problem with usb_modeswithch Archlinux


I'm using archlinux.

Recently I bought new USB 3g modem. Modem is HSPADataCard LW 272 (Teracom). Here is my lsusb output after connecting the modem,
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 8087:0020 Intel Corp. Integrated Rate Matching Hub
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 8087:0020 Intel Corp. Integrated Rate Matching Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0c45:6409 Microdia Webcam
Bus 002 Device 004: ID 230d:0101
The last one is my modem. I have installed modemmanager. I'm trying to switch mode using usb_modeswitch, Here is the output,
Command :- sudo usb_modeswitch -v 230d -p 0101 -u 3

Output :-
Looking for default devices ...

Setting the configuration returned error -2. Trying to continue
-> Run lsusb to note any changes. Bye.

If I'm not wrong then my modem is mounted as usb storage device with kernel driver scsi_mod , But usb_modeswitch is not able to find driver to detach the device.
Can someone tell how to switch mode or detect my modem?
