Ask Tii - Questions about iOS5 beta

Hey Rob!

I bought a UDID on eBay and installed iOS5 because I was really curious... I'm enjoying it but its a little buggy as you know.  Do they release other betas on the way to the gold release in the fall?  If so, how does one find out about those?  And is there a fairly easy way to go back to iOS4?  I probably should have considered that before I put 5 on my phone, but oh well!

Thanks, love the show.

Its a 3GS.

Hi Mike,

 

 

Per your questions.  Yes, Tii, No

 

Yes - they will release new betas as we progress.  Probably should be a new one in the next week or so.

 

Tii - Listen to the show to find out about new releases of the beta - since you don't have a developer account - which is where you would normally find out about it.  FYI - you probably will have to buy the new betas as well. 

 

No - Nope no easy way to go back - Apples warns about that on their developer page.  Not impossible - I have heard of some people that were able to go back - but it is very technical process - or so they claimed. 

 

Regards,
