Install the OS via iTunes

Open iTunes and upgrade to the iOS 7 Beta by choosing Restore.

1. Open iTunes and click your device on the left, go to summary tab at the top
2. Hold alt/option on Mac when you click Restore. Or on Windows, hold Shift when you click Restore.
3. Find the .ipsw file you downloaded and select it.
2. Complete the installation and then restore from backup if you desire.


*You can install old backup from before update - some phones don't need their UDID activated, but not activating your UDID can cause problems when Beta 2 is released or if you want to restore to 6.1.X*

*By the looks of it GSM phones doesn' need their UDID activated, but CDMA do, not 100% sure though*

I bought it. I'm downloading it right now. How long does it take? Once I buy it, it's instant, right?

It's been about two hours since I bought it, and I installed it. I'm on the lockscreen after setting it up, and I get this,
"We're unable to complete your activation..."
'This device is not registered as part of the iPhone Developer Program.' Blah, blah, blah. Wtf dude.

They're probably working their hardest to get them done, as the other website has shut down for a while to get rid of the backlog they probabbly got a backlog as well, they will email you when its done, you sure you sent the UDID and not serial?

LOL. That would suck. But yeah man. I didn't think there was a two hour backlog. So I'll get a confirmation EMAIL? I sent them an EMAIL as well telling them I bought it, with a screenshot of the transaction. Hopefully it won't take too long. Smile

You don't need to register your UDID to install ios 7. Instead of restoring your phone just click update worked for me fine.
