Haha, just checked the dev page again and came here to update my the day isn't over yet, but guess you've already taken care of that

Anyone else seeing the iPod crash when trying to open it?

No, works fine for me. Let me guess, you restored with a backup?

 

[amrusch2]

Yeah :-/
I program using my personal phone because I can't afford another one. Guess I'll have to redo.

 

[amrusch2]

Hey BadAsh. I sent you a private message regarding A2DP. Did you get that? Am I missing something entirely?

 

[JustinHorn]

The Store placeholder icon is now active, kinda

 

[amrusch2]

Is it just me, or does it seem like there is nothing exciting in this release?

You really can't expect anything more than bug fixes at this point. More than likely you will not see anymore features added until new hardware comes.

Yeah, probably holding back stuff from beta that is only available on 3rd gen iPhone since you couldn't use it on the current phone anyway. This would prevent the dev hackers that can crack the DMG files and find the hidden stuff.

Anyone got Beta 4 installed on a Windows XP PC?

I am a registered developer using a PC (with an iMac on the way), that is currently trying to install Beta 4. It passes the new verfication with apple process at the start and installs right up to the last bit of the bar on iphone, then just sits at the verifing iphone restore for eternity. I have 8.2 installed and have tried with the same result 4 times.

It restores back to Beta 3 without a problem, but can't get 4 on the iPhone.
Any ideas???

Am expecting my first Mac (in the next week or so, just waiting a delivery email from apple), and if can't install using the PC as have done with earlier Betas, am hoping the iMac turns up before Beta 3 expires.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Many Thanks

Not on xp, but mine installed just fine on vista.

How did you do the install? After extracting the beta from the DMG I do the control click update and select the file. Did you do a update or restore? If you did the restore, I would just try doing the update way.

I chose update.

Tried both Dizzy, it still just sits at verifying restore, tried by wireless and cable router and still nothing. Strange. I can however put Beta 3 back on with no problems

 

[JustinHorn]

That's strange. Could just be something with XP and iTunes 8.2 not working right, although that's hard to believe since it works on Vista.

I have a few things that probably won't work, but if you have the time might be worth trying:
- Download iTunes 8.2 again and uninstall / reinstall
- Download the firmware again and unpack the ipsw from the dmg
- Try the update again

Also, have you tried doing a restore to beta 4 as a new phone? You could see if this works and then after manually restore a backup to your phone, but keep in mind that you possibly could lose all your settings before trying this.

loving it so far..

 

[Satanic Goat]

Must have been a PC problem as restored the pc to factory settings updated XP with SP3 again ran iTunes again and it worked first time. Weird!!!! Glad the iMac is on it's way

 

[Satanic Goat]

Anyone else noticed the Messages tones disappears occasionally on Beta 4?

 

[JustinHorn]

All sounds randomly stop working, happened since beta 1. A reboot of the phone fixes it. Although it has happen a lot less with each new beta.

 

[jhamilton3]

Slacker radio stops when screen goes dark

I<3Radio app won't even work

BeeJive crashes on me every single time I try to use it
