3.0 Beta 5 and iTunes 8.2 Released

The new beta 5 version of the 3.0 firmware has now been released to developers along with a new version of iTunes. As with the previous beta 4 you will need to update your iTunes to the latest version to install the beta. As you guys probably know I have updated my iPhone to the beta 3.0 firmware and I am currently on beta 3. These updates are really getting annoying. I can’t keep updating my iPhone every few days when a new beta is released. And they actually force you to do it by making the firmwares expire so that if you want to get pass the connect to iTunes screen you have to update it. The previous beta 4 was released only 8 days ago, but the reason for so many updates in so little time could be that Apple is rushing to get everything ready for the upcoming WWDC 09, thats just one month away.

Swag Bucks!

iPhone 3.0 Beta 4 Released for Developers

About two weeks ago 3.0 beta 3 was released for developers and was later leaked on torrents and uploaded to the net. Now 3.0 beta 4 has been released for paid developers in the iPhone Developer Program. It was released yesterday and has been leaked already on torrents. The Non-Dev Team jailbreak hasn’t been released yet so if you want a jailbreak don’t upgrade yet!

Note: We’ve gotten reports that developers must install the iTunes 8.2 pre-release before attempting to install iPhone OS 3.0 Beta 4.

For the people who update ModMyi tell us that the store settings are working now. This means people who upgrade will be able to buy from the iTunes Store and App Store on there iPhone or iPod Touch.

Search results can now be shown or hidden and the order adjusted (Unchanged from Beta 3)

SMS messages that fail to send now appear with an exclamation mark. Demonstration of deleting and forwarding of individual SMS messages. Has been available since beta 1 but never shown on World of Apple before.

We also have found out that in MMS when taking a picture from your camera, it will ask you if you want to take the picture, want to save it or want to re-take it again. I’m not sure if this also goes for the camera.

Copy and paste has made its way to the Calculator app.

Remember before upgrading to 3.0 beta 4 you must do it the right way, by not connecting to the Internet. Please read this post before upgrading, please don’t do this if you don’t know what you are doing.
