Running beta 4 on the 4S, and it's running pretty smoothly. Definitely better than beta 3. Haven't ran into too much bugs, aside from the official Twitter app, where i have to hold/touch "home, mentions, etc" buttons longer to refresh the feed, but other than that, it's great so far.

1428 is for GSM and 1429 for CDMA. After you download, make sure you backup on itunes. To install, hold the alt key (Mac) or shift (Windows) and click update. Find the file. Then it will install and you just need to restore backup to get your stuff back on the phone.

Beta 4 is much smoother and it's good to use daily for me.

This happened to me yesterday, I had to restore to 6.1.4 and then I updated to 7 beta 3 through iTunes.
From there I updated to beta 4 through the settings app.

To the people will iphone 4S(s), how durable is that phone?
I'm thinking about purchasing one.
I've seen the drop tests and it failed horribly.
I usually drop my phone from waist height.
So how many times have you dropped it from waist height without shattering the glass?
The only case I'll ever buy for a phone is a battery case, so don't reccomend me any otter boxes.

Honestly Beta 3 made my iPhone 4 crap. It always shut off, it never notified me of new texts, and the overall lag on the phone was just terrible. I stuck through it though, and Beta 4 was worth the wait.

Any iPhone has a glass screen, and any iPhone 4 and up has a glass back as well. I have a 4S and it has a crack in the back of it from when i threw it during a fight w/ my girl
It's not the most durable phone out there, but if you want durable, go get a Motorolla Walkie Talkie phone or some ****.

iPhone 4 will begin to run slower and slower and slower as updates come along. That's how Apple always gets you to upgrade phones and whatnot. I forgot what it's called, but they've been doin this for mad long.
Basically, you're not doing anything wrong. Your iPhone's hardware isn't strong enough to handle the software updates that Apple is designing for the iPhone 5. Take it from a guy who had an iPhone 3G until the iPhone 4S came out. 3 full cycles of hell
took me 2 minutes to open my Messages app before I got my 4S.

iOS 7 Beta 4 Confirms New iPhone With Biometric Home Button And FingerPrint Sensor - iPhone 5S and the rumored low-cost iPhone have been all we have been hearing about for these last few days. Finally though, we might have a good lead on something that we have been hearing rumors about for a long long time! The Home Button is perhaps the most vulnerable part of the iPhone, and it was hoped that it would be replaced with a capacitive fingerprint scanning button, and a new hint in iOS 7 Beta 4 may have confirmed that!

I'm scared for my iPhone 5 now. I take forever to upgrade phones.

The iPhone 5 should hold up well through iOS 7 and 8. It runs a dual core processor underclocked to 1.3ghz and I'm sure apple could turn it up if need be. If a single core A5 iPhone 4S can run iOS 7 pretty flawlessly, I think the iPhone 5 should have some longevity although the 5S may be sporting quad core but that's anyone's guess at this point.

I have an iphone 3gs and I dropped it hundreds of times.Any iPhone has a glass screen, and any iPhone 4 and up has a glass back as well. I have a 4S and it has a crack in the back of it from when i threw it during a fight w/ my girl

I don't even get scared when I drop it.
From the drop tests that I've seen, the iphone 5 is the only newer iphone that seems as durable as the iphone 3gs.
I borrowed my friend's ipod touch during the holidays and I dropped it from desk height.
Screen shattered...wow. If that's what I can expect from the 4s then I'll get the 5.
