How to activate my iphone after installing iOS 7 without a Developers account?
I successfully installed iOS 7 onto my iPhone 4S. However it keeps giving me an activation error. How can i fix this without buying a developers account with apple?
To activate it you basically go to itunes and hit shift + update ( not restore). But you need to be activated before. So jsut go back and restore your iphone to 6.1.3 since apple is still signing it. Then once you activate it and all go back and do the shift + update and select the 7.0b1 ipsw, and hopefully this way still works. If this doesn't work then there's some people online who take like $5 and they will register your UDID through a developers account and then you will have ios 7 activated.
Regardless of whether or not your device's UDID is registered, you still have to Shift/Command+Click update to choose the beta.ipsw. Let me clarify that you DO NOT need to pay for activation prior to installing, there are many methods to installing without Developer permissions or UDID registration. I think even 5 dollars is too much for software which still isn't finished, so i recommend this:
1.Back up iPhone.
2.Shift+Click/Command+Click Update button and browse to.ipsw update file
3.Click OK on all alerts and allow to update.
4. When iPhone boots into iOS 7, triple click the home button to activate the voice control feature.
5. After the triple click, the Emergency Call screen will appear. As it switches to Emergency Call, swipe down on the screen with three fingers to bring down Notification Center.
6.Choose the weather Widget and allow the app to load.
7. After the weather app loads, press the home button to exit to the springboard.
I've tested this update multiple times on my own iPhone 5 and am working on a few 4's and 4S's, so if you run into any trouble feel free to add my contact and i'll try my best to get things rolling. Best of luck, it really is great software.
Well if you are currently on iOS 7, you need to restore to ios 6 first. Put your iPhone into DFU mode by: 1. Plug it in to your computer, 2. Turn the phone off, 3. Hold down the home + power buttons for 10 seconds, 4. Release the power button, but continue to hold down the home button until your computer recognizes your device in DFU/recovery mode.
After all that, restore your iPhone to ios 6 using the restore button in iTunes. Once it is setup you can restore from a backup if you want your old data back when you install ios 7. Then hold down shift and click update, select the.ipsw that you originally used for the iOS 7 beta. It will update and and activate all without registering your UDID.
*One thing to note, you need to do the shift + update when a new release of the beta comes out, if you don't soon after your phone will restore and be stuck like it is now.

You need a developer account (99$/year) or request someone have a developer account add UDID for active your device, you can search in Fiverr or fivesquids.co.uk
Something like this
You need to restore your iPhone
Put your device into DFU mod and restore it with iOS 6. You can also just registerer your device at http://ios7udidregistration.com for $7.99.
It's very simple.
You have to download the latest version of iOS 6 for your iPhone 4s, then do a clean install and setup the phone as a new phone.
Then upgrade to iOS 7 Beta by downloading the IPSW file for your devices.
See how I did it in the guide below for free without a developers account.
