iTunes? That will typically offer to install the carrier settings.
I tried the following, for my failed to verify message for the public beta 2.
Delete download, multiple times
remove profile, multiple times
reset network settings, multiple times
anything else I could find via a google search, which brought me here.
All of which failed.
I had been starting the download and walking away to do other stuff, like getting ready for work. I had an ah ha moment when I looked at the display and it said LTE and not WiFi (brief moment on lock screen) during one of my many tries.
What worked for me was using my iPhone X for 45 minutes straight (slow wifi network connection)
I never let the display dim, or the phone snooze off.
I kept it on and actively working reading news, browsing web pages, playing games etc, the download finished and its installing now. No failed to verify.
Clearly we all are having varied, results but maybe this will work for you. It did for me.
iirc, many years ago I to do a similar thing with ios 4, maybe 5 to get a developer beta to successfully download.
edit: Of course I could have just lucked out, but I also used the same process on my iPad with success.
It might be a server side issue since I'm having problem updating my TvOS as well. If possible, download the IPSW and install with iTunes.
I discovered tonight that if you have more than one AppleID set up on your device, the same AppleID must be used for iCloud and iMessage in order to use Apple Pay Cash.
Yes true, but whats the fun in that.
I have never given up easily. Never will.... If you can't break a beta and or figure out a way around an issue then its time to move on from betas, and go back to stable releases IMO. It was always my understanding beta testers looked for issues they found and documented them. I went out and found a way around the issue and had a lot of fun doing my testing. I like exercising my brain and problem solving. I could have taken the easy way out, but thats not me.
So while you do have very valid advice for most people. I cannot follow that advice and we have to agree to disagree...
Actually, it looks like we agree a lot. You yourself went and found that the same Apple ID must be used for iCloud and iMessage in order to use Apple Pay (post 259). Seems that you may also like experimenting and problem solving as much as I do.
I've enrolled in the iOS beta in the hopes that it resolves my main infuriating issue is that it doesn't connect to my car via USB. ios10 on my iPhone 7 plus had literally 0 issues connecting as soon as i upgraded to ios 11 it won't connect. It eventually comes up connection error doesn't matter if i use Apple Music or Spotify, official apple cables or not nothing will make this work.
My car has Bluetooth but quite frankly the quality is like 1980s radio its not worth using. It worked in 10 I really hope they fix it, annoyingly I can't see any mention of it at all in any of the updates and i have only owned the car several months. Anyone got any ideas? (No I cannot get the firmware updated in the car its not that fancy but it should still work like it did before)

Can anyone explain why my available storage dropped from 5.5GB to 3.0GB after installing Beta 2?? Has never done anything like this on any beta.
Thanks for the help

What is the phone bahivor when switching to low battery mode ? ( below 20%)
I had a similar issue. I deleted the downloaded update and re downloaded it and it worked fine.
I think this is a new bug in beta 2. I posted earlier that it did not happen for me on my Plantronics ear piece.I found out later that it does on 11.2 beta 2.
Same here with iPhone X and AirPods. The music (Spotify) continues to play every time I take them out. Pretty annoying.
Problem is solved by turning off Bluetooth in the Control Centre. Reactivating Bluetooth slows down the dock but does not disable it. Strange problem.
I am having the same issue when I disconnect from bluetooth in my car. The phone keeps playing music on the speaker. Never happened in the other betas.
Strange, never happened on my 7+.
Anyone noticing heavy frame rate drops at 1% on 11.2 with either the X or 8 plus?
Except you didn't actually work around anything and this issue has nothing to do with this particular beta. If Apple activation/signing servers are having issues nothing you do locally can change that. You just happened to finally hit a window where it worked and nothing you did affected that.Yes true, but whats the fun in that.

Sometimes, there's no "workaround" for issues that Apple must address and/or resolve. I hear what you're saying, but sometimes you just have to wait it out.
seems like another reason to keep the home button, because software can make everything unusable someday
