After the classic Christmas break, Apple has gotten back to work with the second Beta of iOS 17.3, but sand has been forced to withdraw it after it rendered the iPhones useless that they installed it.
It has been a couple of weeks of rest without much news about Apple or news about its updates. It is Apple's classic Christmas break, which ended today by launching the new Beta 2 of iOS 17.3, in addition to the rest of the Beta 2 versions for watchOS, macOS, etc. Shortly after its launch, complaints began on social networks, especially Twitter and Mastodon, with numerous users pointing out that their iPhone had become unusable after installing this Beta 2 and all they see was a black screen and a wheel spinning non-stop. The solution was not too complicated, since a simple restore of the iPhone to the previous version was more than enough for everything to be as it was, although for those who did not have a backup made, something that on the other hand should not happen if you are a Beta user, that means the possibility of losing a lot of data.
We do not know the causes of this problem, Why has this happened to some users while others have been able to update without problems. It is not related to the iPhone model, because it occurs with different ones, nor has it been possible to find a common element for all those who have been left with a used iPhone when updating. There is talk on social networks of a problem related to the accessibility function of tapping on the back of the iPhone to activate functions, but it is not the cause of this failure either. The thing has ended with Apple withdrawing Beta 2 from its developer center so it is now impossible to install it, and we are waiting for a new version to be released without this "little problem."
