Yes, Erase All Content & Settings through Settings on iOS. Set up as new, made sure the issue was resolved, it was. Then did another Erase All Content & Settings and restored from the iCloud backup I had made on beta 2. Issue did not come back and all is normal on beta 4 so far.
On B3, I had the issue with the phone app hanging. It would sometimes crash but other times just take a really long time to open. I found that when this happens that my visual voicemail is not working too. If I go to the voicemail button, instead of my visual voicemail, there is a "Call Voicemail" button instead. If I tapped the button it would call and let me hear my voicemails just fine. After some research and trial and error, I found that if I toggle Airplane Mode a few times the visual voicemail comes back the way it should and then the phone app is back to normal.
I'm installing B4 now so I don't know if it fixes this or not.
Some folks had success just toggling airplane mode for about 30 seconds, then back off. Hoping this doesn't become even more widespread before Thanksgiving break.
Now when I disable that option it asks for the passcode. When I installed the beta the option was disabled and it was letting me enter the phone without asking for the passcode
Is it me or have the iOS 11 betas been a lot more painful than iOS 10 betas were?
It feels like they're digging a lot deeper into the code with these betas than they did with 10. Most issues with 10 betas were cosmetic and quickly fixed.

This is why Apple shouldn't release betas on a Friday. If something happens, you're screwed until Monday. Thanks for the heads up. Looks like I'm sticking with beta 3 for now.
Screwed until the following Monday unfortunately.
I see no difference from beta 3, I can turn on the phone with the home button and it goes straight to lock screen.
Yeah I fixed it. For some reason the unlock phone with TouchID option disabled itself and it was letting me enter the phone without entering the passcode on clicking the home button twice. Reported the bug.
This beta actually fix my Apple Maps issue with cursor going the opposite direction, rerouting, and multiple sound notification when rerouting.
Yup thats weird. Touch ID in IOS 11 so far is still inconsistent. Sometimes it goes past the lock screen and sometimes it asks me to put my finger down again.
Not sure whats up with that.
What does you clip show exactly? What I already noticed is that the widget still glitches which shouldn’t happen.
Interesting mines work flawlessly except for the time when Touch ID has dirt or smudges on it or wet/sweaty thumb.
I added double of the same fingerprint for fluidity maybe that helps
Is ANYONE having issues with these betas and screenshots? Sometimes taking a screenshot doesn’t flash or show the thumbnail, sometimes when I crop or mark up a thumbnail the changes don’t actually save when I save it to the photos app. Restart temporarily fixes the problem. I’ve been having these issues since iOS 11.1 betas and continue even after reset all settings continue to have this problem. I haven’t seen it mentioned anywhere.
Is the home button delay fixed? People have asked, but I haven't seen any answers on that issue.
