Hello Applevis,
Following this set of instructions (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/enabling-developer-mode-on-a-device) I've trying to enable developer mode on my iphone so I can opt in the beta firmware of my airpods. However, When I turn the switch on and then iphone prompts to restart and I hear the corresponding shutdown and booting up sounds, my iphone is unresponsive. Voiceover doesn't turn on, nor am I able to toggle mute / unmute (my usual very non scientific method of knowing when iphone is having problems or not). After 1-2 minutes of that, I tried this twice and I am able (don't know how) to somehow force reboot my iphone by only holding the side button for quite awhile. And of course then my iphone is back to normal and under settings privacy and security security developer mode is still at off.
Is anyone able to help me? I run xcode 16 beta 3, macos sequoia beta 3 on m2 and iphone 14 on ios18 beta 3.

Share Your Bug Reports with AppleVis
If you experience a bug in Apple Beta Software, the most important thing you can do is to file a report in Feedback Assistant. Please do not assume that Apple is already aware of a bug or that your report won't make a difference; your report may provide crucial information, and submitting bug reports directly to Apple helps them reproduce and resolve the issue faster. The more reports they receive, the higher the priority Apple is likely to give to fixing the bug.
If you are using beta software, please use the Feedback Assistant on your device to submit feedback and bug reports. If you are using a public release, this blog post explains how to report the issue and what information to include.
In 2025, AppleVis launched the Community Bug Reporting Program with the goal of improving the quality and quantity of information we share with the community about bugs in Apple software releases. If you would like to contribute to this effort, please submit your reports via our Community Bug Report Form.
All reports shared with AppleVis must first be filed with Apple via Feedback Assistant. More information about the Community Bug Program is available here.
