Word of advice... backup before you start. :)

I was able to 'update' from 2.2.1 to 3.0 Beta 1 but I just got error 1611 during updating to Beta 2. That forced my phone into recovery mode and forced me to restore.

Luckily I did backup!
 
Apple is not releasing Flash for the iPhone at all. It kills the App Store.

im not so sure. apple and adobe have been buddy buddy as of late.
and i think that there will be flash support, but maybe with special restrictions and limitations.
 
I just connected my first gen iPod Touch with itunes and I currently have 3.0. When I clicked check for update it says that 3.0 is the current update, and no new updates are available. I live in Canada, so Im not sure if I would have it yet. Anyone know how to fix this problem? When I updated to 3.0 everything worked fine, now iTunes says theres no new updates?

EDIT: I still cant get itunes to find a new update; what should the new firmware be ex 3.1?

beta updates aren't pushed by apple over itunes.
you have to download them from the apple iphone dev website.
assuming you're on a friends dev account or you paid for 3.0 access, talk to the person you got it from.
 
"Apple has also reportedly confirmed that MMS messaging and device tethering won't be supported at all during the iPhone 3.0 beta test."

Boo hiss!

Flash Support would be amazing.......A lot of the websites i need to visit for info on products uses a flash UI. Flash would be a dream come true.....:)

great! thanks for the help :D
 
Just installed it without any problems as an update over my iPhone OS 3.0 Beta on an iPhone 3G. MMS and Tethering still works on German T-Mobile network as well as Skype calls over EDGE and 3G. There is a new menu item under Settings called "Store" that contains no data.

You need to log in to develop.apple.com, and download the new update through the iPhone SDK 3.0 Beta link.
