IOS 8 and OS X Yosemite Beta 3

I put ios 8 on my iPhone 5

I downloaded the Yosemite Beta 3 and installed on my mac mini

Both devices function fine, but.....

I wanted to be able to answer phone on mini (using headset that functions fine with skype)

AND I really want to send sms text messages from the Mac Messages app (my wife has an android)

if I start typing a text on my phone, a symbol pops up on computer like they are connected. When I click on that symbol in the dock Messages opens and my wife's cell number is there, but if I type something in Messages and try to send I get an error message that this number, (my wife's) is not registered with iMessage.

and if my wife calls me I see the notification on the mac mini, but if I accept I cannot hear her and she does not here me

have these features been crippled with the Beta 3

Please help

Hi, I am on Public Beta 4 and Developer iOS 8.1, SMS and LTE calls are working on a 2014 13" rMBO and iPhone 6.

Ok. So I have to decide whether to try Beta 4 (I have Beta 3 now) I don't know whether it is the os x or the iOS that has enabled the feature of SMS but I suspect it is the IOS. which means trying Beta 4 won't really help me

I suppose I will just have to wait for the official release of both products.

Not sure how to get the developer version of the IOS. Right now I am operating with iOS 8.0.2

Thanks for the info. Got any advise?
