| − | Hi [[User:liamchat|liamchat]]! You just added 4.2.1GM beta rows. Thanks. Where do you have the baseband infos from? Did you install it on all devices or where does this info come from?

I'm almost willing to bet that the iPhone 3G/3GS baseband is still [[05.15.04]], but it still hasn't been confirmed yet. --[[User:Dialexio|<span style="color:#C20; font-weight:normal;">Dialexio</span>]] 22:21, 18 November 2010 (UTC) |

| − | ::::I also saw that. But it was added for all devices and I think you should only add what you really know. That's why I initially added lots of empty fields instead of assuming something. I agree that it's probably correct. --[[User:Http|http]] 22:38, 18 November 2010 (UTC) |

| − | == SHA1 Hashes == |
||
| − | I'm not completely happy on the idea of having SHA1 hashes for beta firmwares. I do see it as useful if you need to verify the firmware, but I don't think it's necessary. The firmwares should have been downloaded from Apple by developers/hackers, not the Average Joe jailbreaker. I feel that the inclusion of SHA1 hashes is just to assist people in pirating the beta firmwares; that's the only reason I can think of that would make people want to verify their IPSW. Thoughts? --[[User:Dialexio|<span style="color:#C20; font-weight:normal;">Dialexio</span>]] 17:00, 26 December 2010 (UTC) |

Even the index file does not specify ReleaseType (in beta period they used to do that), so we can assume this is just an unreleased beta which was a candidate for a GM release --pjakuszew 08:15, 14 October 2011 (MDT) |

Why is there the Inferno firmware here?
As the title suggests, why? We did not list any other internal firmwares, and it's not really a beta firmware that's provided by Apple. --Awesomebing1 (talk) 03:08, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
- There should be a separate page dedicated to internal firmware builds. Prototype Firmware or Internal Firmware? --5urd (talk) 17:53, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
- I say Prototype Firmware because if we did Internal Firmware, that might mean people who have illegal internal firmwares would add download links, etc. --Awesomebing1 (talk) 18:34, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
I have a question about the build number for iPhone 5c(iPhone 5,3)
The build number in the article of iOS 8.3 beta 4 for iPhone 5,3 was "12F5061" but what my iPhone 5c recieved was "12F61". Should we change it in the article?
- I did also notice this in the OTA BuildManifest.plist. It's listed in Settings>General>About too as "12F61" even though http://mesu.apple.com/assets/com_apple_MobileAsset_SoftwareUpdate/com_apple_MobileAsset_SoftwareUpdate.xml.com shows 12F5061. Developer center also shows this -http://twitter.com/EveryApplesPro/status/580677622264438784/photo/1. I've updated all the pages with "12F61". --iAdam1n (talk) 10:40, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
