Lots of reports of beta 3 sending phones into DFU mode unexpectedly. Connect it to iTunes. Google DFU mode if you're unfamiliar.
 
hold down the power/sleep button and home button together until you see the white Apple logo and just let go.
 
Connect to itunes, then Hold the power/sleep button & Home button for 10 seconds then release the sleep/wake while holding the home button until iTunes starts squawking.
 
You don't need a pc and itunes. Just hold down the power/sleep button and home button together until you see the white Apple logo and just let go.
