Apple seeded iOS 5 BETA 8 to it’s Developer Channel a few hours ago.

Follow the guide after the break to install iOS 5 BETA 8 onto your device without the need of a Developer account or having UDID registered.

Step 1: Download iOS 5 beta 8 for your iDevice. From here.

Step 2: Download iTunes 10.5 Beta 8 from here. You’ll need the latest build of iTunes to restore to iOS5 Beta 6.

Step 3: Install iOS 5 beta 8 on your iDevice using iTunes. Do not set up your device in iTunes following the restore. Follow this tutorial to jailbreak you device on iOS 5 Beta 8.

Step 4: Now you need to delete a key and string from the filesystem in order to activate the iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch on iOS 5 Beta 8 without Developer’s account. To access the file system use a software named iFunbox.

Step 5: Launch iFunbox and go to this path :filesystem/library/coreservices/systemversion.plist. Right click on the file and then open it in notepad. Once opened, locate and remove:<key>ReleaseType</key> <string>beta</string>. Save the file.

Step 6: Once you’ve done this reboot the phone and since it’s jailbroken, you’ll need to boot it tethered using redsn0w. And that’s it, you’ll regain access to the iPhone or other iDevice and your cellular service will also work if you are on an official carrier.

NOTE: If you’ve already updated and are facing problems like the recovery mode loop, visit this guide HERE to downgrade to a stable release.
