Hello Everybody

My Apple iPhone 5C Bootloops after restoring the backup taken in Beta5 in 8.0 GM.

I may be able to restore my Apple iPhone once again to factory settings by entering recovery mode.
But i want to restore Beta5 backup.

Please help

Hello Everybody

It turned out that Beta5 produced junk backup file.
I lost all my recent photos, messages and app data.
I can understand that i am not a developer, only in sheer love in iOS and to try 8.0 i installed it, but still i should not be punished for showing sheer love and enthusiasm.

Moreover, it was not actually Beta1, but Beta5, near to the GM release.
So, it cannot have huge bugs.

Can i approach Apple to compensate me for the loss ?

You should know that the beta software is not final product and it is bound to fail. You took that risk, now the liability is on you. So wether you gain or loss something is entirely up to you. Apple did it part to warn you not install, but you did it anyway. So Apole is not liable on your loss.

Take it or trying to sue Aplle see what you gonna get.
