a wild guess would be that modem-manager uses dbus, so adjust yopur
"start on" accordingly ... any perhaps it can not work at all without a
running network-manager, are you sure it can ? 
also look at the upstart job log for your modem-manager job ... they
live in /var/log/upstart, that should have actual error messages.

do not put the stuff below into your override, the .conf file already
covers it ... override files only replace the bits you define. just
leave the exec and whatnot as it is defined ... you only want start on/
stop on in your .override ...
