I love this phone! It's very easy to use, yet still looks impressive and stylish. I do have one small problem though - I keep on running out of storage capacity when I install more than about 7 or so of the Android applications. I was wondering if there is a way of installing applications onto the memory card that's in the phone? I can't see any option to do it, but surely there must be a way? If anyone could help me out, I would be very grateful.

    Performance between this phone and the LG Optimus is pretty much the same. The only drawback I found with the XT5 was the touch buttons below the screen.

    Imagine running your fingers trying to scroll up. You will almost always hit the touch buttons which are just below the screen. Very poor design.

    The same issue comes up with the track ball. While operating the track ball, you will at times touch the home or search button, which is pretty frustrating.

                  Hello everyone,
                  I have recently bought Motorola Quench XT5 (502).
                  It came with Android 2.1 (Eclair).
                  I chose Motorola XT5 over LG optimus P500 because of the hardware (5MP camera with LED flash, Gorilla display and the obvious looks).
                  The only drawback, which i think, with the Motorola XT5 is android 2.1, whereas LG Optimus comes with Android 2.2 and upgradable to 2.3.
                  The hardware features (processor, rom) are same for both. So, I thought the Motorola will release an upgrade to 2.2 for Quench series.
                  But recently they have posted in their website that XT5 will remain in 2.1 (https://supportforum...oftwareupgrades).
                  I was very much disappointed as I was hoping for an upgrade to 2.2. The problem with 2.1 is that the applications cannot be installed onto external memory(sd card), which was a major obstacle (for me).
                  I am basically a doctor and wanted to use my phone to read chm books and install medical apps, which are taking lots of storage and XT5 has only 172MB internal memory.
                  So, I searched internet, browsed thru' lot of websites & blogs, done a quite research about modding/rooting of phone, using custom roms to upgrade to froyo (2.2).
                  I noted down the information as a flow chart in my notebook and worked on it.
                  Finally,after spending lots of time and resources on this project, I just updated my XT5 to 2.2 and I would like to share my knowledge with the fellow XT5 owners, who are eager to upgrade to 2.2 (Froyo).

                  step by step process to froyo(which I noted and followed):
