Upgrade iPhone 3gs ios 3.1.3 to 4.0/4.0.1

[Mykullski]

I bought anew iPhone off eBay today and it had ios version 3.1.3 on i and I can jailbreak it if I want to but i rather upgrade to 4.0.1 and jailbreak/unlock it.

I try restoring it with the firmware, but it seems that apple stopped signing 4.0/4.0.1 and I get an error code 3194.

Is there a way to upgrade to either of these 2 ios? There has to be a way to upgrade without these signatures?

Thanks all

You have to point your hosts file to Cydia Server first. Hopefully you have your shsh blogs with Cydia.
Add this line to your hosts file :
74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com
and then restore again.

That worked but im not sure why when I never saved my shsh blobs with this phone

I know what you mean, that is why I asked you to try it out but have to point to Cydia. So great now you can do the jailbreakme.com. Enjoy.
