Thanks , was struggling with this since yesterday, now 11beta 2 to 11beta 1 completed, had to find a torrent for the beta 1, currently downgrading from beta 1 to 10.3.2 hope it works!
 
Currently using 11 Beta 2. I downloaded the iOS 10 ipsw and tried to restore it from iTunes. Since then it's been restore-locked. Im trying to download 11 beta 1 so I can jump back down to iOS 10 from there, but I can't seem to find the ipsw.

Hey did u manage to downgrade yet? and if yes how cuz i got the same device. I tried everything and im still stuck

It's not working for me either. I can downgrade to iOS 11 beta 1 easily but I can't get to iOS 10.3.2. Everytime I put the phone in DFU mode, it will randomly boot back up before iTunes can finish extracting the software.
 
Since we're talking about it anyways, I'm currently seeding all 26 gigs at max speed in case anyone else needs it.

Also if the current method is not working, try the 10.3.3 Beta 4 ipsw that was released today.
 
Whats ur device? I have a 6s plus and i tried everything you guys tried but it always gets back to recovery. I can only stay in 11b1 or 11b2

I've got 6S+ and what I've done is restored to ios 10.3.2 doing that

Restore to 11beta2 to remove everything from the phone then
11beta1
10.3.3 beta 4
10.3.2

Everything in DFU mode, and now got my 6s+ up and running.

You have to get the timing exactly right from what I understand. I may have just gotten lucky when I put it into DFU mode. Keep trying. Press and Hold the Power and Volume Down/Home Button for 10 seconds (don't let go when it shuts down, keep holding until 10 seconds have passed). Then press the two again until iTunes detects the device (should be around 10 seconds).

no.. you can use an ipsw of any version of iOS that is signed right now. iOS 10.3.1, 10.3.2, any 10.3.3 beta, 11.0 beta 1 and 11.0 beta 2. You can DFU restore to any of those versions right now.

I have gotten to that point! I got to the point where iTunes detects the device and then asks to restore so I do the shift + restore and pick the iOS 10.3.2 ipsw. After a few minutes, my phone randomly boots up before it can actually start restoring.

Maybe do it on a faster computer? I noticed on my laptop that it would take ages to extract software but my desktop w/ an i5 only takes 20-ish seconds to extract.

You can choose which iOS version in DFU mode. You hold Command on the keyboard and click Restore and a browse window appears to select the ipsw you want to use (you just have the file of your computer; desktop, for example).

do you update or restore every time?
 
So after all this hoopla, I can safely say that--- I'm still probably gonna install the future betas. Although I'll be keeping a Beta 1 IPSW on my computer, just in case.
 
Don't any of you people read Apple's warning before installing? It clearly states that you may not be able to downgrade once you have installed the Developer beta. It should be no surprise that this kind of thing is happening.

If you need your device for real time use, don't install Develpper betas unless you are willing to pay the consequences.

We have the right to test the firmware and downgrade back. Apple should not let glitches this big slide...

Unless you are a Developer with a current account, you don't have a right to install the software per Apple's TOS. You don't have the right to downgrade anytime you like.

Apple makes it clear with their Developer software agreement, that it isn't to be installed on a daily use device. Apple also states that once installed, you may not be able to downgrade. And finally, Apple states that unforeseen events can happen to the device(s) the beta is installed on, including actual damage to the devices (including making it unusable).

Many here are getting a hold of the beta profile and blinding going through the install process without considering the consequences.

Apple is under no legal obligation to fix any software or hardware problems that may arise from installing the Developer betas.

Try this method bro:

1) Restore to ios 11 beta 2 via recovery
2) Restore to ios 11 beta 1 via recovery
3) Restore to ios 10.3.x via dfu mode, use ipsw.me ones for your specific device (i did that)
Dont use the one who download itunes, download it yourself

It works for me iphone 7 gsm

Some people are saying that works 10,3,3 beta 4 for iphone 6s, give it a shot too
