***The iOS 5 Thread***

Need to know please
Anyone having issues with gmail crashing and safari crashing ( not opening )
Can you downgrade ?
 
oh **** ive so so so messed up
my phone is in a constant loop
gets so far in the restore and comes up with an error 1 message, im told via the net error 1 is because its not in dfu mode, so i put in into dfu mode, gets about 3/4 the way through the restore and i get the message again.
ive used tiny umbrealla to fix recovery but still nothing AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !!!!!
is there any way for me to even get beta 5 up and running again ?

PLEASE HELP ME HERE
 
right ive managed to restore to beta 5 Pheeeew !
has anyone here made a successful restore back to ios 4 ?

what happens next time the beta is updated ?
will i have to use that ? im running without dev account and a dev registering my udid
 
right, im in a situ were im glad i stopped as it suddenly dawned on me i could end up bricking my phone.
ive managed to downgrade back to non beta itunes, but now i plug my phone into itunes and it tells me i cant use itunes with this phone because of ios5 being installed on it.
ok
but if i enter my phone into dfu mode ( not yet done this ) i could potentially end up with a phone stuck between 4.3.3 and ios5.
 
When you say 4.3.3 do you mean 4.3.5 because that is where you looking at downgrading to. I'm fairly sure you won't be able to go back to 4.3.3 unless you have the SHSH saved.

I would just put it into DFU mode and try it. Worst that will happen is that you'll need to restore the phone to beta 5 again.

marky to the rescue AGAIN ! thanks

but my thinking is

if i do go into dfu mode and something fails an im stuck with connect to itunes ( like yesterday ) will i be ok installing beta 5 itunes and restoring back to ios 5 b5 ?
also how do i know that dfu mode will work and itunes will recognise me ? at the moment iphones pluged in but wont recognise ( as mentioned above )

also

dev accounts with apple, does it bill your itunes account or do you pay via cc card / debit card ?
