  • How To Install iOS 5 Beta Without Developer Account and Bypass Activation Screen


    If you are not a developer or your device is not registered with any developer account and you aggressively want to test the new iOS 5 beta here is the solution to bypass the activation process. Everyone can do it following these extremely simple instructions:

    The method exploits a security flaw in the activation screen, apparently related to the Voice Over system. Here’s how to do it.

    Warning: While this operation should be simple, we are not responsible for what you do to your iPhone. Proceed at your own risk.

    Notes:

    Download and install iOS 5

    1. Download the iOS 5 IPSW file from here.
    2. Update your iPhone using iTunes. To do this, connect your iPhone to your computer, click on the Check for Update button with the Option (Mac) or Shift (PC) key pressed. Select the iOS 5 IPSW file from the place you downloaded it to.
    3. Wait until it upgrades. A new activation screen will appear.

    Activate iOS 5

    1. Triple click the home button. This will activate the Voice Over.
    2. Triple click the home button and Emergency Call will appear.
    3. Click on Emergency Call and, while it’s switching, swipe with your three fingers down.
    4. The Notification Center will appear!
    5. Click on the Weather widget. The Weather app will load.
    6. Click on the home button to exit to the iPhone’s springboard.

    That’s it. Your iPhone is activated and fully operative.
