It's been summoned! Thank you @Banglazed

 

[bestal]

Thanks banglazed

 

[Misos]

Wonder if this finally fixes the stutters while gaming

 

[Pearsey]

Cheers buddy @Banglazed good work 👍🏼

If we have a developer account, are logged in with the Apple ID associated with said developer account, do we still need to have the DEV profile installed?

Thanks much!

 

[Hans300]

How is battery life?

How is battery life?

Not sure but it turned my iPhone into a gold bar

Thanks much!

It's downloading for me now on my iPad. No profile installed and logged in with my dev Apple ID account.

 

[kvlq]

seems that this beta still available for those with dev profile without dev account.
try to reboot your phone!

 

[Banglazed]

IPSW is up

 

[Donga120]

IPSW live

 

[Pearsey]

IPSW is up

This will be interesting to see if my expired dev account will let me install the IPSW. Won’t prompt me for a login signed to a paid dev account.

EDIT: all ok so far!

 

[redbeard331]

How’s you’re battery life on beta 2?

Thanks much!

I have an unofficial dev profile installed and it still let me download the beta.

Thanks much!

I deleted it and the update was offered to me. My Apple ID is my developer account.

It is indeed

 

[GoldenChild]

How’s you’re battery life on beta 2?

Hopefully much better on my 14PM. I’ve been averaging 4-6 hours of SOT. I miss getting 9-11 hours that I’d get on my 13PM.

That's one way to brick your device!

 

[Pearsey]

Only just showed up on OTA for me.

Downloading IPSW...

All installing ok on a free Dev account 😁
