It's not available under any version 4.x ROM. Some of the older 3.x ROMs that are available in various kitchens may have it, as well as the Special Edition ROM, which was based on the O2 3.x ROM. Alas, the switch to WM2003 put the kibash on it. See this thread for more:

Got an idea....the newer 4.00.33 German ROM has WModem in it. This is WM2003, so could you take the files from this ROM and load them into an ENG version? I have no need for the WModem software, but maybe someone else can give this a shot and let everyone know.

And a great idea it is! 8)
Any updates on this?
Has any progress been made in pulling Wmodem forom the WM2003 German Rom? Can someone post a link to the Rom in question so I can take a swing at it? Does anyone know if it is even working on the German Rom or if they just included the same version from the WM2002 Roms assuming that it would work? Sorry for the flurry of questions, just very anxious to see if this works.
Ok here you go on the link:

HTH
HOW-DEE-DO-DEE.
HAS ANY ONE TAKEN OUT THE Wmodem PROGRAM, AND GOT IT TO WORK ON NON-GERMAN WM2003 ROM?
8)
I tried it but it didn't work
I flashed 4.00.33 (german rom) to my device, copied the wmodem.exe file to an sd card, then flashed my device with 4.01.00 (t-mobile english rom) and copied the wmodem.exe file from the sd card to the device. I connected my xda to my computer with a serial cable, opened the wmodem program on the device, chose serial connection and hit start. I then tried to connect on my computer but nothing happened (no connection, no error message on the xda). For the record I currently use wmodem with the xda developers special edition rom flashed onto my device so I know that my settings are correct.
I'm guessing but perhaps there's a driver file for the 2003 version of wmodem.exe. I could not find any other file in the german rom that looked like it was associated with wmodem. Perhaps someone can determine if there is a driver file needed for this version of wmodem to run. If so, we can extract it along with the wmodem.exe file from the german rom and try again.
what about just using the german rom ?
might be a stupid question, but is the WM2003 german, actually in german or english ?
will a german rom work with a usa t-mobile account ?
-Mario
yes it is in GERMAN :lol:
and it will work with TMO as long as u dont screw with a diferent country's RS
does this version of WModem use USB ?
iv seen some web pages about the new smart phones with wmodem on it that can use usb to connect
WModem
I have just updated my Siemens SX56 (AT&T US) with WM 2003. I downloaded a copy of wmodem from a URL in this form. I have tried both IRDA and Serial cable from Windows XP laptop with no luck.
I can get the computer to talk to the phone (icon flashes in wmodem) but it appears that the phone cannot reply (I have used hyper terminal too).
Has anyone gotten this to work? If so what wmodem version? Any suggestions on the command line parameters would be helpful.
Thanks,
Julian
What about the XDA II WModem?
What about getting a copy of the Wireless Modem program from an XDA II? I know O2 includes this, so surely someone here has a copy of it. Additionally, it has USB support!

New version of WModem
You guys probably already have this, but I found a new version of WModem (2.0.5.2). I can't get it to run on PPC2002, but it may work on WM2003. I believe it came from the XDA II. Let me know if you have any success. I've also included the USB Modem driver and dialer needed for USB connectivity. Good luck!

it is from a german 33 modem. can someone post a wmodem from an xda II together with a clean registry snap ?
thanks.
I just checked under start->programs as well as in the file explorer and it just not there.... this sucks! Can i just download the program somehow?
I have the original upgrade (the one they took down after like a day)
I don't know if missing wireless modem on English wm 2003 is badwill or disability of operators. Only German T-mobile wm 2003 ver.4.00.33 has wmodem, but only in german language.
Regards
:roll: sur give it to the germans and no one else
damn you t-mobile!
Actually Wireless Modem is not included in any WM2003 Releases... And if u manage to get it and put it on ure device it wont start or work as it should.
So i think not T Mobile is to be blamed...
:wink:
Hi,
I just received my SX56 two days ago. I have T-Mobile USA service. I'm trying to figure out the Windows Mobile 2003 upgrades and all that. I found the ROM cook site. So, from what I understand, I can cook the ROM from the site, download it and run it to upgrade my SX56, right? I will not need to do anything else. Everything's included in the ROM downloaded from the site? Also, what version should I update to? A.30.09 or 4.01.16 or something else? Please help!
Also, is there a way to have Bluetooth enabled in SX56 or is it a hardware restriction?
Thank you.
for now i would stick with what you got
and no a rom change could not make it do bluetooth
not even make it work with sdIo Bluetooth cards
I have used PPC2003 before and I have bought few applications that only work with Windows Mobile 2003. That's the reason why I want to upgrade SX56 to 2003. Could someone please guide me to the correct version number for T-Mobile? Thank you.
The 4.01.16 is quite good and stable. (does not have the audio bug).
Pierre
Ps: There's also the SD Erasure!!! buggy WM2003
Okay, I am happy with the 2002 Special Edition Rom I downloaded from the kitchen., But am I missing out on any advancements by not going to WM2003final?
Does anyone with a SX56 have a recommendation for the best ROM for the phone?
Thanks.
It depends a little bit on what you want. If you´re happy with your current ROm, stay at this ROM.
If you want to get a usable WM2003 ROM i would suggest to use the 4.01.12 ROM.
If you want to have the newest ROM and also use landscape mode, but have some little difficulties, use the WM2003SE ROM
There is no possibility to say, this Version is the ultimate ROM Version.....
Stefan
So there are no major differences between 2002 and 2003 that I am missing out on?
2003 supports secure pop
The biggest advantage for me was that 2003 supports secure pop connections. The biggest disadvantage is the SD card erasure problem with 2003 ROMS. Hopefully this is fixed in 2003SE.
Shawn
How about the 4.01.16, Lumpistefan?? Is it OK or it is slow or it has problems that 4.01.12 does not have?
Thanks!!

Is it possible to get DUN working under WM5 on the P3600.
I know Mun had a patch for WM6 but I cant flash the phone till its out of warranty but at same time need DUN for TomTom.
Any help would be great.
Thanks,
John
No, it's not working on WM5. I tried.
Hate to say that the only thing that works is to upgrade to WM6. If you ever need to use warranty, flash it back to your original rom.
I would love to flash to WM6 but have heard that the device ID and more importantly the IMEI number changes when flashed.
Is this true?
John
no - imei wont change. don't worry
