Ok people... I know links have been posted so dont jump my bones. A mod asked me to post a thread with install instructions for each individual OS in the appropriate forum so we can sticky these.
Yes, I had done all of the above, except I didn't realize you had to start the App Loader. I thought the prompt would just automatically come up. I believe I'm done with the upgrade, just waiting for my device to connect. Thanks!
Super Loopy... if you guys need something fixed and it has not been done, just send me a PM. I can't keep up with every post made. Also, no need to be rude about it. Like I said, I will fix it in awhile. My wife is using my laptop.

The volume level sucks on every 4.5 OS. Never had an issue with this on 4.2 OS. You would think this would have been a simple fix.

I don't know how many OS have been released in ver4.5, but I will agree there is definitely a sound problem...not as loud at all. Every level acts as though it's the level below it. I.E., Medium, sounds like Low. Loud sounds like Medium, etc.
Being new to the BB world, the Mobile 6 would would have came out with a "tweak," instead of waiting for a new OS to fix-is this true for BBs???
