hey...ive just seen the new motorola MPx.......it looks awesome...has anyone any info on a release date or pricing...i cant find anything on motorolas site
I have used the search feature on this forum with no results for WM6 for my Motorola Q. It says "Radio Version Q2-BP_C_06.0C.05P,Q2 Portable" if that helps anyone any. It's running Windows Mobile 5.0 (OS 5.1.195 Build 14960.2.4.0) and I just wanted to know if there was an upgrade I could get ahold of. If so, could someone link me to it or link me to the forum thread? The search for "Motorola Q" kept giving me an error stating that (Q) didn't serve as a high enough peremeter and I kind of figured it wasn't seeing Motorola for some reason (only God knows why).
I'd think it would be possible as the Q9m from Verizon is more or less the same phone as the Q in a new case with WM6.
Yeah the possability is there. I just wonder, does anyone have a link to an upgrade? Because I know that T-Mobile users even got to download the OS as an upgrade for their phones (from what I heard).
There's no upgrade official ROM for Motorola Q CDMA and it always keep stay in WM5.......

The same for me... Samsung never deceive me like that....
I m in France and i bought my xt720 in july!!!! Just 4 month old !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, but Motoroi IS getting 2.2 in Q4. Isn't that the same as XT720? Also, I have an XT720, I'm in the US, and they don't even list that model for US phones at all!

yes, currently US XT720 and Asia-Pacific Milestone XT is not in the list yet. According to what's happened to Backflip, only US backflip got 2.1 update and the rest of the whole world has to live with 1.5. So, US XT720 has a very high chance of getting the upgrade.
for Motoroi, The WCDMA module and camera module is different. so, I'm not sure it would work with your US XT720. At least, you'll loose your 3G and camera functions.

what about StarHub XT 720 from Singapore?

according to what's written on Motorola's Forum, StarHub's XT 720 is officially called Milestone XT and they have not yet put it into the list. so, just wait and see.
let assume starhub milestone xt will get froyo update
would it be possible to flash uk xt720 to starhub firmware?

Absolutely possible. But you'll need a way to find your own language pack. (that's the only different). And that's also I'm having doubt for Milestone XT to get Froyo update. Language pack is so easy to add in the rom for them. So, if they're planning to upgrade Milestone XT, there definitely should be an update for XT720 EMEA (Europe, Middle East & Africa) phones.
Let's wait and see what they'll do for US XT720. If I'm not wrong, they'll deliver update for US XT720 (similar things happened to BackFlip).
My main doubt is about 8MP camera module. Seems like they can't make it work with Froyo. That's why XT720 Froyo update is pending (MOTOROI has got 5MP module)
I`m not sure that the camera is problem... 5 or 8MP is all most the same... I think that the camera hardware is same in all XT/Motoroi series, but in XT720 is 8MP with software emulation.
My hope is Motoroi XT720 (XT711)... This Korean version will receive 2.2 this year (will see...), the hardware is 98% the same, difference are minimal (according gsmarena.com) :
- Some DVB-T tuner
- Only 2100 HSDPA (In europe this is the same)
I`m trying to find Korean 2.1 original rom to flash my XT720... if 2.1 works, I think that 2.2 will work too.
if some one can give me link to Korean rom I will try and write result.

you can download Korean ROM at the above link. I support your idea. may be we can install Korean ROM and do a little modification to our needs.
OK, Now I`m with Korean Service rom.. The phone boot and work normal for the moment.
I will check it today, but I think that this will be the solution if Motorola dont release update to 2.2....
I must change keyboard... my korean is not very good
This is good news! Waiting 2.2 on motoroi

Mmm... no so good for the moment.
Sorry, but my English is not very good to describe everything. After I flash Korean rom (service version) I have this problems:
- Must add manual my operator
- cannot find APN in the menus and for the moment don`t have data
- The touch buttons don`t lights (but light when tel. boot up...)
- The proximity sensor have his own opinion how and when to work ;-)
I decide to flash because I have another phone to use. Today I was out of time to test more precise the phone with Korean rom, but I will these days.
It will be better if someone how knows Android OS well support us in this, because I`m not a software expert... It`s no problem to use me for all king of tests and experiments, but don`t ask me to create scripts and roms
thats sounds good so far!
It's no prolem to chance the "apns-conf.xml". Then there will be Data again
The Light of the touchbottoms is also a setting in the "build.prop". So no problem again
The sensor MIGHT be a problem but if it sometimes works, then a wrong setting will be the problem.

motorola sucks. its no wonder they havent had profit at all recently
Now Motorola sucks... before Samsung... maybe next year HTC will sucks with some model...
We cannot change them... The are too big and don`t care for few clients (because the angry clients are 2-10%).
And of course.. Google is wrong... It`s impossible to control, support and update new OS every 6 months... and for 5-10 phones from a brand.
The only way is customization...
it does not mean we cant just give up. i mean what have we got to loose if we sign the petition?
Any custom roms available for this phone yet? Haven't found any at this point and I am looking at getting the phone soon. Don't want it running Moto's garbage.
I have the phone and it's not bad in that it has the Palm Pre form factor, and it's cheap, but the software is sluggish. No one tested this thing at Motorola. It's usable if you get into the "flow", ie, slow yourself down to it's pace, but it needs a ROM.
I have 2 of them, one for myself and one for my gf.
Locked Bootloader, no roms or modding support whatsoever, stuck on 2.1 with no official Android upgrades in sight, subpar wired headset volume, a slow as molasses CPU, and it constantly lags.
It's not a bad phone for the money, but for a little more dough you can get a much more powerful and customizable handset. I bought mine about a month ago, and have been shopping for an upgrade since the day I got it home.
I think what more sucks is that Android 2.1 is buggy and a lot of performance improvements were made since 2.2.
I don't think that the phone itself is that bad. Just we need a new ROM!
Motorola Fire XT316
Anyone knows about the Fire XT316? It seems to be very similar to the Spice XT300 and will have either Android 2.2 or 2.3. I hope Motorola will offer to upgrade our Spice to 2.3
