Question Can anyone help?

Ok so I have the Q8 with Windows Mobile 5.0. I know I can upgrade to WM 6.1 but how do I do this? Sorry but I am pretty much clueless when it comes to WM upgrading. Plus I really don't want to mess up and brick my phone!

Are you SURE it's a Q8. I am fairly certain all Q8's were WM 6.0. You may have a black classic Moto Q, If it is WM 5.0
