So I have iOS 5 beta 1 installed

[megscd]

My wireless sync...doesn't. Says when it's connected to my Mac it will. Mac awake, all systems go, but no sync. What did you have to do to set it up?

I was going to load tonight but many people on twitter is saying battery is not to great. I may hold off.

Yea. I have it. Seems to be poor on battery power

I am also very new to iOS development and I would also like to know if I upgrade my phone to beta 1 and put it in developer only mode, does it still activate on verizon towers and be able to be used or is it just basically used for development purposes only

jskoland: I just came across this link: Using the new iPhone OS 3.0 - iPhone Dev SDK Forum


Although it does apply to the old iOS 3.0 days...

? Use iPhone OS 3.0 beta software for development only. This new version
should only be deployed on devices dedicated for iPhone OS 3.0 beta software
development.

? Updating devices to iPhone OS 3.0 beta software. By installing iPhone OS 3.0 beta software on your Authorized Test Devices, these Devices are permanently ?locked? into testing mode and cannot be restored to earlier versions of iPhone OS.


Some suggested putting the phone in DFU mode to be able to restore to your previous iOS version.

Can anyone confirm that that actually works though?

Hey Jsntrenkler, can you please verify that you now have full control to the dictionary for me please.

Dictionary works, but I do not see any options for personalization. I will keep looking around.

Yes it will, however keep in mind this is a beta and not everything works properly. So far I have discovered small issues with facebook not allowing you to reply to posts. Tapatalk has rendering issues on occasion. Battery Gauge is way off, but might just need to be calibrated.

I am not sure it's eating the battery as much as just not being accurate, I was on 20% for a long time. Fully charged woke up this morning at 92% ... I am going to run her down to nothing today and fully recharge.

swampbaby: Thanks for the response. Sounds like things should work ok. Just real new to this and like to take baby steps. If I had another device not such a big deal. I know Apple said you can not restore to an earlier version however I made a back up of my current firmware with tiny umbrella and if things go hay wire wondering if I could still revert back using that.

I can't wait to get my hands on this.

 

[jskoland]

jsntrenkler thanks for the info.

Ok that sucks. I started the process and I got a message in xcode telling me that this device is not able to get the update or something to that nature and now I sit with the iTunes logo and cable screen on my phone

Did you get your UDID activated first?

 

[jskoland]

Perhaps I looked in the wrong area. I looked under my developers page and went to the provisioning portal and on the side under devices I see my phone

 

[jsntrenkler]

I had this happen once when I accidentally entered my UDID incorrectly. I would double check it ... Hope your phone comes back to life.

I entered DFU mode and through on the Jailbroke iOS. Going to try it again.
