I was a genius and bricked my iphone 2 days ago and was stuck until i found the website that i linked to my name above, just click on my name to go there. They had me up and running in no time and i now have complete access to their Apple developers account with my own user ID and password. It was worth it, just my 2 cents for anyone who is in the same boat i was.

Apple has an iPhone Dev program for students. Check it out, might be just what you’re looking for.

The beta has made my gps useless, it is now about a mile wrong and doesn't follow, and some times it won't send texts but says it has and vice versa.

Bit laggy bringing up finder (unless you press home to get it up).

Other than that I have found it spot on and am genuinly excited about 3.0 as a whole. 3.0 completes phone for me, fills the gaps.

For got to mention mms is done very well.

You can now dl the beta jb it and use iutilities to trick iTunes into thinking its 2.2 activate the phone then switch it back no need for a dev UUID

anyone know if you can change the time for Require Passcode if you have an Exchange account setup on your phone? With 2.2.1 you can put it up to 15 as long as that conforms to your Companies security policies. With 3.0 beta 1 it could only be set to Immediately which is a huge pain.

@wilux if he added you iPhone serial number to his dev-account you can download the beta software from whereever you can find it and you won’t have to worry about your iPhone Beeing locked

Hi guys, I have one question for you. Last week one guy register my iPhone in his developer account and I download the first beta. Now hi change the password and I can’t find it. The question is, if I download the new beta in another page my iPhone will be activate or I need to find a person who add me in his developer account again for the new beta?

@spidesol, can you provide a link?

By: Spidesol

Spidesol — Thu, 02 Apr 2009 06:38:40 +0000

Yeah I know I am a registered developer

By: Ivoryplum

Ivoryplum — Thu, 02 Apr 2009 05:58:12 +0000

@Spidesol You did read that anyone thats not a registered developer should not download 3.0 unless they want to brick their phone…right? At least this is what I’ve heard.

I found a Russian website that has jailbroken 3.0 beta 1 and beta 2

hey can some one help, i updated to the new 3,0 beta 2 an now after i restore my itunes does not see my phone on there so i cant upload my music or anything, can anyone please help!!!

By: Ana

@dwj

I concur. I have most of those apps literally hidden because I never use them.

By: Tyler

Tyler — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 15:34:51 +0000

@ISSAC: I agree. the voice memo icon is so conspicuous. This update is much more stable. The lag is nearly gone. The frozen sms typing is gone. Now we need at&t to give access to mms.

By: Joe

Joe — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 14:47:51 +0000

@ Evilhomer - Some of us are actually registered paid developers with legitimate access and need to be running the OS.

If we want to complain about an icon that we think is particularly displeasing, we're free to voice our opinions.

By: Mike M

Mike M — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 14:21:27 +0000

@Evilhomer The sqeaky wheel gets the grease. What gets bitched about gets taken into consideration. While I doubt they’ll rearrange the icons again, that ugly ass icon could still see a change before it goes live. Wish they’d have a setting to hide the apple icons. I’d hide this one, the useless weather app, and probably the stocks app too.

By: Steve

Steve — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 13:54:34 +0000

@Evilhomer:

We were asked "what do you think (of this new arrangement)?"

Try reading a little slower time. If you need help with the big words, ask your mommy.

By: Evilhomer

Evilhomer — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 13:24:15 +0000

God will you people STFU about the way an icon looks or where it’s arranged on you. It’s a beta. And it’s a great beta. You guys doing all the bitching over icons shouldn’t even be running this OS.

By: Joe

Joe — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 12:56:39 +0000

I leave all my original apps right where they were also. I've been using the iPhone from day one, and would go crazy looking for them if they were anywhere else.

I also think the Voice Memo app icon is horrid. I was kinda shocked that's an apple designed icon...

By: Terry

Terry — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 11:01:50 +0000

Why would they move them. I like where they are now. Yes I am one of those people that leaves the original icons where they are. I have become so used to it, that I am lost if they are moved –

11 Homescreens in beta 2

Did anyone else get this screen after upgrading to beta 2?

What do you mean by "Also, there’s apparently a new Settings panel for Store, although it sounds like it’s blank right now."? A new App Store settings App? Or a makeover to the default Settings icon?

By: Omari James

Omari James — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 06:14:24 +0000

It looks better this way. I’ve always had the Stores on the bottom.

Am I the only one who hates the voice memo icon? It looks like a poorly made 3rd party app

No one mention anything about how the landscape keyboard fades when in transition i think thats cool

Additional note regarding Youtube not working in addition to not restoring from backup (great advice when dealing with the beta firmware) I also found that until I signed in with my Youtube account, it wouldn't load anything.

This may not be the same experience for everyone, so your mileage may vary. (I also kinda doubt this a requirement they will carry over to the public release but who knows).

Great update except that it broke G Maps U.S. So smoother overall.

By: digitalrio

digitalrio — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 03:27:48 +0000

Yep.. I did.. will try a restore without the backup.. thanks!!

By: Rene Ritchie

Rene Ritchie — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 03:16:09 +0000

Did you restore from backup? That can always mess with YouTube for some strange reason. If so, try a fresh install. Jeremy recommends that for any OS update, and I’ve learned to listen to him!

By: digitalrio

digitalrio — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 03:05:45 +0000

My YouTube does not connect… Also I found a Store option under settings with nothing else there… Wonder what that’s going to be!!

By: Duvi

Great stuff… hopefully the update comes before summer.

By: MattyFresh

MattyFresh — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 01:19:34 +0000

Definitly not if you can upgrade do it way more stable its out there

By: frog

frog — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 00:07:29 +0000

Great update. Fixes every bug I’d reported. This doesn’t feel like a beta!

By: dwj

"Not sure about this new arrangement, what do you think?"

Do people leave the icons in their default positions? I moved a good chunk of mine around so I would have front page access to the programs I actually use.

Lag is gone much faster and lots of bugs squashed. Looks like beta 1 did its job.

By: Steve

Seems to me like Voice Memo could've been made part of the Notes app (the notepad icon with part of a mic laying on top).

By: Muero

Muero — Tue, 31 Mar 2009 22:40:52 +0000

Did they include a changelog? I just want something to read while I download that monstrous 2.1 gigabyte DMG file.

By: Steve

Steve — Tue, 31 Mar 2009 21:47:06 +0000

Apple, throw in some Calendar ToDos and some icon management while we’re waiting… you got a whole thirteen weeks.
