I just upgraded to official release of 6.0.0.415 on my 9650 and know no one can hear me when I talk to them thru the built in microphone, but all is OK when I am on Bluetooth.

I have had this same issue with multiple 9650's and on all releases (even betas) of OS6.

Any advise would be appreciated

I upgraded several days ago and have had no issues with the microphone not working on my 9650. Perhaps wipe & install again, in case something went awry during the install?

The issues seem to be that it does not release the Bluetooth mic, I have had 3 different 9650's and all have the same issue on many different release of OS6

Ahhh ok. I don't use BT. May have to try connecting to the Sync in my Explorer...or maybe not just in case.

Issues with the speaker mike not working after an upgrade seem to be common. RIM suggests a reload of the OS. I would suggest it be done from the PC not OTA.

I have done complete wipes w/ JL Commander and BBSAK. I just wonder if it has anything to do with our BES server or Bluetooth.
