Beta Testing for iOS 4.3 has begun and Apple has released the first iOS 4.3 beta 1 to developers on January 12. The iOS 4.3 beta has some really cool features including mobile hotspots and new gestures for the iPad that eliminate the need for the home button.
Only the iDevices below are included in the iOS 4.3 beta:
* iOS 4.3 beta (iPad)
* iOS 4.3 beta (iPhone 4)
* iOS 4.3 beta (iPhone 3GS)
* iOS 4.3 beta (iPod touch 4th generation)
* iOS 4.3 beta (iPod touch 3rd generation)
If you have an iPhone, iPod, or iPad that you would like to use to beta test the iOS 4.3, you are in luck.
You will need to be on an Apple iOS Developer team to Beta Test.
Vinny says
Awesome! Can a grab a copy of the iPad firmware please guys ?
LEI Mobile says
Vinny I believe we only have a UDID of your iPhone on file. We would need you to submit a new one for your iPad as we only have a few spots available.
Vinny says
Thanks for that, I’m having a slight problem though..
I don’t have the gesture pane in the settings (under the side switch pane)
Is there any reason for this?
I’ve downloaded the firmware twice now and I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve restored ?
Still no luck

LEI Mobile says
For those of you on an iPad on iOS 4.3, enable the secret multi-touch gesture user interface by connecting it to your computer, opening XCode, open the organizer, and go to the iPad tab. Now, click “Use For Development” and wait until it’s done. Now, go into the Settings application on your iPad and you should see the option magically appear!
Robert says
Any spots left?
LEI Mobile says
yeah. I will update the post when we run out.
Thanks!
Garrett says
I just donated the 10 bucks, and sent my udid with it. How long until I can install the beta on my iPad.
LEI Mobile says
Please check your UDID and resend it to me. It looks like you missed a character. Thanks!
Robert says
Awesome. I forgot to enter my UDID, so I sent it in a separate email. Hope that’s okay.
Jerry says
Hi,
I’m new to all this. I just registered, how long until I get a password? Also, once I donate, how long can I download beta’s, does this last for as long as I own my phone, or does it last until the site closes down?
Thanks, Jerry
Barb says
you will have access to all of the 4.3 betas and possibly more. Each year the device count is reset and LEi Mobile’s resets in October.
Jerry says
Hi,
Just sent 10.00, where do we go from here?
Thanks, Jerry
LEI Mobile says
you will get an email from Apple with login information. Thanks!
Jerry says
Thank you for getting back to me. What do I use for my company info? Can I put whatever I want there?
Thanks, Jerry
LEI Mobile says
Yeah just put whatever.
Jerry says
TY
Jerry says
Hi,
I’ve signed up and everything was ok’d. Where do I find the 4.3 beta file? Also, still have received the password from the site. Sorry for all the questions, just real new at all of this.
Jerry
LEI Mobile says
you should have received an invitation from apple that was sent to the email address that you used for paypal.
Jerry says
Hi,
I did but can’t seem to find the file 4.3 beta anywhere. Been looking for quite sometime. Not sure what’s up!
LEI Mobile says
I am seeing that you have not accepted the invitation from apple yet… check your email and register.
Jerry says
What I do see is…OS Developer Program for a 99.00 a year. This is grayed out (iOS SDK 4.3 beta). Won’t let me access it. I’m a menber, they did accept that.
Jerry
LEI Mobile says
go to https://developer.apple.com/devcenter/ios/index.action# and then click on the beta tab at the top and then the firmwares will be at the bottom of the page.
Peterdean says
Are there any spots left for registering my UDID for iPhone 4? If so how soon after I donate will it be before activating/registering the UDID for me?
Thanks
LEI Mobile says
i can register it right away.
Peterdean says
OK I will donate in a few minutes. If I have questions is there a way to talk other than here?

Jerry says
It says access denied! I got your email and the code now says Invalid Invitation Code. I can get on the site and says I’m registered.
Jerry says
I’m on the site, it won’t let me access any downloads. Says I’m registered, the links you put up here, only get access denied. Does it matter if I havw Win dows 7?
LEI Mobile says
Jerry just email me. info@leimobile.com It still says your application is pending, so you did not correctly register.
Jason says
I donated and received my invite for the UDID I sent you earlier today. The UDID is submitted was for my iPad. If I want to run the beta on my iPhone, do I need to donate again or just give you the UDID for my iPhone?
LEI Mobile says
we would love another donation as we only have a limited number of devices that we can register.
hakeem says
hi all, i have made a school boy error and installed 4.3 without having a dev account, i cannot get my UDID as it wont activate with itunes servers. is there any other way of getting my UDID as i am willing to make the donation so i can use my Ipad to test 4.3?
thank you
LEI Mobile says
You may be able to find it in system profiler under USB devices. If that doesn’t work you will have to restore back to 4.2.1 to get it.
hakeem says
i have found something under system profiler, its says serial number but looks way too long to be a serial number, could that be it? i have tried downgrading back to 4.2.1 but it wont let me. any chance i can send you a screen shot?
hakeem says
just connected my iphone 4 to itunes and clicked on serial number, it changed to UDID and was the same as what was showing for the serial number in system profiler so im assuming its the same for the ipad?
hakeem says
sent donation and connected back to itunes.. all is well now, thank you guys! *moonwalks across room*
Ben Shapiro says
Hi, do you guys have any spots left?
LEI Mobile says
