Running iOS Beta 5 (15A5341f) but cannot update to Golden Master

[dickie001x]

My phone ran out of space shortly after I installed beta 5 so I've been unable to install OTA subsequent betas. I've now connected my iPhone via iTunes to install the GM but it says "This version of the iPhone software (11.0) is the current version." How can I get round this? Or will I have to wait until 11.0.1 for it to recognise I need an update?

Try again on Tuesday via iTunes when the official iOS 11 is seeded out to all.

enroll your device again through the apple beta website. I had the same issue but on my mac I could not download the GM of MacOs. But after enrolling again I got the GM update at once!

If you're not a developer, OTA is the only option you have for the GM.

Go to Settings > iPhone storage and see if you can "offload" a few larger apps - you'll lose the app, but retain your data. After you install the GM, you'll see the apps you've offloaded in their usual places on the home screen with a "download" icon next to them. You'll be able to redownload the app just by tapping the icon.

Thanks for the responses. I'll see what happens this evening when it's officially released....

Nope. Still not showing. I removed and reinstalled the Profile too, but still nothing. It must be checking on just version # rather than the build #, so looks like I'll have to wait until 11.0.1..

Delete the beta profile, reboot your device, then attempt to download/install OTA.

That's the problem - I can't OTA as I'm out of space.

If it's not working now it isn't going to. You need to use iTunes.

Edit: You can download the ipsw and update that way.

Okay, you can download the iPSW file and update that way.

Thanks - I've not done that before - how?

You can go to ipsw.me, or you can put your device in recovery mode if you want to set up as new or restore a backup.

That worked a treat - thanks so much for your help!
