iOS 6 Beta

LasciviousXXX · 06-13-2012, 11:20 AM

Hello CA fam!

I just updated my iPhone 4S to the new iOS 6 Beta that was announced on Monday. So far I am really loving all of the new features. Pretty seamless integration with Facebook etc. The new "TomTom" version of Maps takes a little bit of getting used to, however the turn by turn navi is pretty sweet.

Anyone else update yet? Thoughts? Issues?

Where did you find it?

LasciviousXXX · 06-13-2012, 11:31 AM

The iOS 6 Beta ipsw is widely available on teh interwebz. Google Fu my friend

maninblack · 06-13-2012, 11:38 AM

Will download this when I get home. Thanks for the heads up Tyr!

LasciviousXXX · 06-13-2012, 11:39 AM

No prob Kevin! Just remember to restore to 5.1.1 prior to installing the ipsw.

Thanks! When I googled I found sites for developer's that required a password or $10...

I guess you are a better Googler than I am....

HAhahaha! Actually, I use the term "Google Fu" to represent all web searching as I don't actually use Google

DuckDuckGo all the way baby!

Is it out for iPad yet?

bvilchez · 06-13-2012, 06:11 PM

Does the phone need to be jailbroken to do this?

No it does not. Any regular iPhone/iPad/iPod touch can be upgraded

BHalbrooks · 06-17-2012, 10:43 PM

So uh, what option would I pick for my Sprint 4s? I usually am such a techie, I'm ashamed.

LasciviousXXX · 06-18-2012, 09:47 AM

The very first option is the IPSW for all iPhone 4S phones on any carrier

Samsquanch · 06-18-2012, 11:35 AM

I've got the 4 and so from what I understand some of the features are disabled unless you have the 4s. I am waiting patiently for the 5...

BHalbrooks · 06-18-2012, 08:37 PM

haha thanks. I was paranoid about downloading the wrong one and somehow messing my phone up lol

BHalbrooks · 06-19-2012, 11:05 AM

Won't let me download. Keeps asking about a premium membership.

CigarNut · 06-19-2012, 11:50 AM

I've been trying to download for several days (no premium membership). It always gets interrupted and they has to start over. Even though the technology to restart in place has been around forever...

I am about to give up...

LasciviousXXX · 06-19-2012, 03:07 PM

Really? Huh, I didn't have any probs with the download. Try another site guys. Just web search "iOS 6 Beta IPSW" and there are tons of sites with the file.

iOS 6 supposedly will not work on some older versions of iPods, iPhones, and iPads. But I'm not really the one to ask about this. I just updated to iOS 5 yesterday.

LasciviousXXX · 06-25-2012, 12:59 PM

iOS 6 Beta 2 is now available for developers and anyone who already has iOS 6 installed on their device. It fixes a few bugs and tweaks a few things. Super easy to update. Settings>General>Software Update = profit

CigarNut · 06-25-2012, 01:11 PM

Did you pay to be an IOS developer or pay to get your UDID registered?

I got it installed in my iPad but it would allow me to install without registering my UDID with Apple. That seemed to cost $99 from Apple (to be a registered developer) and less from other sites.
