Apple [Tutorial] How to Install iOS 10 on your iOS Device NOW

[RyDog]

I don't recommend installing this on your daily phone/tablet but installing this on a secondary device would be nice to use to see all of Apple's features before they're public.
I also don't claim responsibility if your iDevice does anything unintended. Use this guide at your own risk.
Before I start this guide this is the requirements for you to install the beta/pre release of iOS 10 on your iOS device:
-iPad 4+
-iPad Mini 2+
-iPhone 5+
-iPod Touch 6th Gen
-Your iDevice needs to be unjailbroken and it needs to be running iOS 9.3.x.
If your device meets the requirements continue on with the tutorial
Steps:

• Go into settings on your iDevice, General and then Profiles and device management and make sure no previous Apple Beta profiles are installed. The profiles and device management section on your iPhone is used for enterprise apps to install profiles on your iDevice and to tweak settings to use specific API's. Apple uses a profile to tweak your iDevice to get developer updates. The tab should look like this and it may be blank or not show up if you don't have any profiles installed
  
• Before installing this, make sure your iDevice is backed up to iTunes and/or iCloud so that you may restore your stuff if you choose to downgrade later.
• Once your iDevice is backed up, make sure your iDevice has a battery charge of 50% + or you have a charger ready to use, and download this profile right here or here
• To download the profile make sure you're using safari and then click on the download button and then click direct download
  
• If it downloaded correctly, then your screen should look like this:
  
• Click install and enter your passcode and then agree and then restart to apply changes.
• Once your iDevice restarts, go to Settings/General/Software update and a request for the update should appear
  
• Tap 'Download and Install' enter your passcode and your iDevice will download the large update.
• It will download in the background so you're free to use your iDevice while it downloads
• Once it is finished downloading a Pop-up asking for you to restart to install the update will appear and tap on 'restart now' and your iDevice will go through the normal OTA update process

Once your update is done you have iOS 10 on your iDevice wayyyy before your friends This is the very first build of iOS 10 and it should be very laggy and buggy so don't complain to me if your device crashes every 10 seconds.

To downgrade back to iOS 9.3.2 (or 9.3.3)

• Download the correct 9.3.2 .ipsw file for your iDevice found here
• Make sure Find my iPhone is disabled
• Connect your iDevice to your computer and launch iTunes
• Click on your device and then Shift+click on Restore iDevice and then a file selector will pop up for you to manually select the .ipsw.
• Open the .ipsw and then iTunes will verify if the .ipsw is correct and if Apple is still signing the firmware.
• Once it's finished your iDevice should be back on 9.3.2 and all your stuff is gone
• If you made a backup before iOS 10 restore it the same way you downgraded but don't press shift.
• iTunes will then restore your settings and redownload your apps

I hope you find this guide useful to download iOS 10 before any of your friends do

Quoted from a different website

The CDMA model presumably has compatibility in more markets than the standard GSM model. According tot he list below, unless you ordered your phone from a Chinese firm, if you have a CDMA model it also supports GSM.

GSM is a European standard and supports the EDGE network. CDMA supports some networks branded as "3G", but YMMV. Both are getting a bit long in the tooth as far as cutting-edge goes (IMO).

You can use this list to help identify if your model includes CDMA (Global) or GSM:http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3939

Check the "Model" at the bottom on the back of the phone and cross-reference it with the model number on that list. Here are the relevant iPhone 5 data:

• GSM models: A1428, A1533 and A1530
• CDMA models: A1429 and A1453
• CDMA China models: A1528, A1530 and A1518

that's cool, i didn't know it was possible to do get beta updates without the device registered to a developer account

IOS 10 is kinda lame.
Just jailbreak your device.

The latest iOS versions don't have a jailbreak, and there's no way to downgrade so why not go up? :^)

I guess Apple finally realized nobody wanted to pay $100 just to get a free software update before others, and others were probably linking the beta .ipsw off of the developer site.

well i don't think apple changed anything... right? i guess they don't condone this profile sharing thing, and i guess it would have worked last year too - no?
or is this something new that was not possible before? i assumed something new that was possible before, but nobody thought of it lol

This IS a private beta that only who pays $100 can get. it's just tht somebody leaked it until apple will release the public beta

yeah but you can't simply install any ipsw, itunes has to verify with apple. so the ipsw alone is useless.

CDMA is equal to "Global" right?

I'm not 100% sure but I think that's so

The config profile is new, it was introduced in iOS 9 iirc. I think it's supposed to check your UUID to make sure you registered your product at developer.apple.com but apple forgot to include it in this one. That's what happens when you shift install a ipsw though. Actually, the registration check takes place during a set up screen when you update or set up your device, which wasn't included in this update which is why everyone can update. Apple could patch this in Beta 2 and lock all non devs out of their devices so don't install beta 2 before we get a green light
