First, make sure your phone is set to allow it to act as a modem. With your phone on, dial ##FEATURE and press the green dial key. Enter unlock code 000000 when prompted. Click on "enable WModem" and select "enable. Press OK, the phone will reset.

Please use a file manager to go into \windows, you will find "wmodem.exe" and "wmodem.lnk". Copy the .lnk file over to \windows\start menu\programs. While in \start menu\programs, you may be able to delete the verizon modem icon, unless it was installed as part of the ROM.

In order to use Wmodem, Active sync MUST be disabled on the phone (use task manager) and PC. There is a write up here http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=35 which covers configuring your PC. The above stuff was not covered in that post, so I mentioned it here. Verizon likes to disable stuff.

BTW, if you install a Kitchen ROM, you don't have to do the ##FEATURE, but you still have to move the shortcut.

good luck.
