Beta 4 installed and running fine on my iPhones. It did not upgrade my Gen 1 touch though. I had to do a complete restore on it.
So far it looks exactly the same to me. Can't find any differences.
Strike that, Store now has an icon and you can view your account info. Not exactly a major new feature but nice to see it now n settings.

Been reading through this thread, looking at TheSpaz replies etc, I am not a developer but my dad was stupid enough to download BETA 1 and install it, thus getting locked in and he decided to buy a legit certificate, thus I have access to it now, however I bothered to start something, not sure if I will ever release it, anyway, to continue on thespaz and how he claims he knew it would be out before everyone else, bollocks, we all know Apple are doing it Biweekly. Please shut up.
TheSpaz must have a extra special developer account if he's managed to find lots of cool new 3.0 stuff and have confirmed advance notice of the beta release before anyone else!!
I have a novel idea:
Get back on topic, folks. No one cares whether or not anyone is a developer. Heck, I'm one, but what does that mean, really?
Let's get back to actually discussing the software at hand, shall we? I'd hate to have to report this thread for closing due to it having fallen into worthlessness.

Alright, anyway about the gps.. i just started using it even though i've had it for about 6 months now. I seem to be able to use it only when i'm walking for the live tracking thing.. when i'm in the car the circle around me is just pretty damn huge?
Your thoughts? Or tips?
Any sort of help or advice would be immensely appreciated!!

The car is made of metal, when you're walking, there is no giant metal roof above your head. Also, the car travels a lot faster than you can walk.
I didn't say I knew about it or had it days before MacRumors. I just didn't have to wait for MacRumors to post that it was out because I can log into my developer account and look for myself. That's all I meant. I probably had it a few minutes before MacRumors said it was live. Relax guys.
Because of the NDA, I've not posted stupid threads about 3.0 graphical glitches lately and to all of you, that should be a good thing! Now I'm not talking about it and I still get picked on... there's no winning is there?
That's not even true. Blu-Ray is being adopted faster than DVD was.

Anyway there is one thing I've noticed in beta4 that is new - Japanese phone numbers are FINALLY formatting correctly (090 1234 5678, for example) but unfortunately now US numbers are not.
You can, but it needs to have a GPS signal. There could have been all sorts of obstacles in the way of the GPS signal. If you have a blue dot on the screen, you've got a GPS signal. If there is a blue aura around the blue dot then you still have a GPS signal, but the accuracy has gone down so it creates the circle around the dot to indicate a margin of error. If the crosshairs are showing up then you do not have a GPS signal, the iPhone is finding your location based upon WiFi or cell tower data.
How exactly do you get MMS working? It's there on mine running 3.0B4, but it shows a red error flag by the pic after I try to send.
Btw, using AT&T US.

To have MMS working you need an AT&T MMS plan. AT&T has been told to refuse activation of MMS on iPhones. The only way to get it working is to take your SIM out, put it in another AT&T phone, call them up and let them know you will be using another phone for a while and need MMS service activated.
Then you can put it back in your iPhone and it will work.

Beta 4 is seamless for me. It's as if Apple has lubricated the innards of the iPhone and everything is just blazing.
Honestly if I was sold this as a final product there will be no room for complaints at all.

Does the iPhone lock button work during a call?
Hi guys,
I installed OS 3.0 beta 4 and I noticed that when I am in the middle of a call and if I press the power button once it does not lock the screen, instead it ends the call. It used to lock the screen in previous versions. This would prevent me from accidentally touching buttons on the screen. Anyone else have this problem? I was in the middle of a call with a friend and kept hanging up on him repeatedly before I figured it out.

Doesn't happen for me. As far as I can tell, B4 is indiscernable from B3, other than being way smoother and minimal lag.

Even under iPhone OS 2.x my iPhone always locked the screen and disconnected the call, which is a major issue for me since I have a defective power button that presses in way too easily.
