Apple released BETA 4 for iOS 5 yesterday and it introduces a lot of speed improvements and bug fixes. If you want to download iOS 5 BETA 4 but don’t have a developer account click here, click here to download iTunes 10.5 BETA 4 which is compulsory for installing iOS 5 BETA 4 and finally if you want to know how to install the new firmware itself click here.
Redsn0w one of the best Jailbreak tools available has been updated once again to support iOS 5 BETA 4. MuscleNerd a member of the iPhone Dev Team had the following to say:
The 5.0b4 OTA update won’t work on JB devices due to an explicit check of /Applications..almost like a present from Apple
NOTE: It appears that by design, the OTA update that became available starting with iOS 5 beta4 will *not* be automatically applied to jailbroken devices. That’s a relief to those who don’t want to lose their jailbreak via OTA pushes. If you’re jailbroken, you’ll need to use the standard iTunes method to get to iOS 5 beta4.
So basically if you jailbreak your device it won’t be able to get OTA (over the air) updates in the future. Download links are below:
