Did you run 'sudo update-grub' command after changing the /etc/default/grub
file ? If not, then the actual grub configuration file was not
updated and you probably still have nomodeset on the kernel command
line.

It should work. If you additionally run 'sudo update-grub', the grub
configuration file /boot/grub/grub.cfg will be updated. Then nomodeset
shouldn't be passed on the kernel command line any more.
