Apple iOS 5 Questions & Answers

Anyone tried to install (upgrade to) iOS 5?

Posted by wicked123 on Jun 08, 2011

Just spotted a video showing how to install the iOS 5 on apple iphone 4 without a developer account. Turns out that due to a flaw in Voice over or something, an apple fan called Mert Erdir found a way to upgrade to the latest iOS and successfully activate the OS with a couple of home button clicks and three-finger swype. Here's the full article and video: http://gizmodo.com/5809621/how-to-upgrade-to-ios-5-today-without-any-developer-account

Just wondering if it actually works? And if it does indeed, how's the phone acting? Shall we try it or wait for the official release?

I`m pretty interested too :) and as always I was extremely amused when it got jailbroken for just several hours after it was announced :D FTW

The first post kinda points to the same thing...

Well it should work, but being beta automatically leads to less than stellar performance.
