Getting error 3194 when trying to restore custom 4.1 firmware on iPhone 4

[MrKrabz]

I downloaded the firmware 4.1 for the iPhone 4 from Apple's website and used sn0wbreeze to make it custom firmware. However when I try to restore it from iTunes, I always get an error message. I tried using iREB, but when I tried to restore it again after that, it still wouldn't work and I got the error 3194 this time. What do I do? Its very important that I jailbreak and unlock my phone in the next two hours so I need some help ASAP! Thanks in advance.

Download tiny umbrella, plug your bootable iphone in and click save shsh blob.
If your iphone is not bootable , then input your ECID manually and click save shsh.
You can only restore to firmware that has shsh blob, no exception.
Here is how you can find out your ECID and is always the same for your device.

What firmware do you want to restore? What is your devive ? Do you need an unlock ?

[Edvin168]

i am on 4.1 3gs now yes mine need to unlock what can i do?

Run tiny umbrella, highlight your device name and highlight 4.1 shsh blob. Start Tss Server, run redsn0w 0.9.b6b6 and browse to stock 4.1 firmware.
Check only the box DFU mode only.
Once DFU is done.
Run itunes and shift + restore to custom firmware of 4.1 ( to preserve your baseband )

Make sure you have atleast itunes 9.2

What error? 3194? Then either you didn't do it the right way or u don't have 4.1 shsh blob.

[Edvin168]

Yes still got error 3194. I did follow up the rite step but sigh... Well, my phone do have shsh 4.1 n 4.2.1. do u think that shud cause by my PC?

In TU , did you highlight your device and the 4.1 shsh blob and then start Tss Server > the log should say connecting. This shsh blob is unique and must be for this iphone.
