Developers can now download iOS 5 beta 2 Build 9A5248d from Apple Developer Center. Apple released iOS 5 beta 1 at WWDC 2011 earlier this month. The final version is expected to ship this fall, possibly with iPhone 5.

iOS5 Beta 2 Build 9A5248d

Beta release of iOS 5 is meant for developers only and you will need to have developer UDID to activate iOS 5 Beta 2. However, there’s a workaround that lets you bypass Apple’s UDID check. For those who want it, can install and activate iOS 5 Beta 2 without UDID. It’s not recommended though since the beta releases are buggy and are not best for routine use.

Beta 2 comes with bug fixes and enhancements so you’d notice improved battery life after iOS 5b2.

Here’s a guide if you intend to downgrade from iOS 5 to iOS 4.3.3 or earlier versions.
