I own a Motorola Fire XT myself and I thought it would be of good help if I compiled the resources for this phone together in one page with links for other people to use.
All tweaks and methodologies mentioned are because of the hard work of a number of developers. I do not claim any ownership or responsibility to the stuff that I list here. They are not mine. I just happened to search the internet for my own phone and found these links. Respect the Devs. Not that we have this information across, let’s get started.
These links worked perfectly for my Morotola Fire XT.

Rooting Motorola Fire XT:
Note: Rooting will void your warranty, unless you unroot back.

Increasing Phone memory on Motorola Fire XT: (using Link2sd) to be done after rooting
This guide is written for Xperia, so skip directly to "4. CREATE SECONDARY PARTITION" section and follow the instructions from then.
Remember: You have already rooted your phone, don’t do the rooting method of Xperia phone again and brick your phone. Have some common sense.
Use the Auto-link feature of Link2sd and automate moving the apps to SD cards second partition. This will act like your internal memory. Good luck.

Increasing Phone Memory without rooting for Motorola Fire XY or any Android Phone
Follow this Guide at :  http://androidadvices.com/install-apps-sd-card-android-rooting/
OR if you don’t understand the previous one, try this: http://safeguardplus.blogspot.in/2012/05/how-to-increase-internal-memory-space.html

Best Applications for Motorola Fire XT or any android Phone for that matter:
Launcher:
Use Launcher Pro. Simple and Light weight and extremely powerful.
To Do / Task management:
Use Do it tomorrow. You'll like it.
Video Player:
Use MX Player. It plays all formats including VOB files, very smoothly. Just make the soft decoder as the default decoder in the decoder settings and you are done!
EBook/Audio book Reading/Listening:
Aldiko for reading and Smart Audio Book for Audio books.
Browser :
Opera Mini (For mobile views without JavaScript) and Dolphin Browser HD (for Desktop Experience).
File Manager:
Xplore. Simply the best.
Widgets and Phone Management:
ZD Box.

On a final Note:
In case you have soft bricked your Motorola Fire XT, you can revive it back by flashing the SBF available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24998745.
