Q: Can't restore error code 3194

I am having the same problem.  My question is, will the solution that Lambro mentioned, work for me if my Iphone 4 is jailbroken on iOS 4.3.5?

I am trying to restore my iPhone 3gs with iOS 3.0.1! I want to restore with this version of iOS only. I am also getting the same error code "an unknown error occurred 3194". Tried using tinyumberilla, tried it by doing force shutdown, recoverymode restore and all the ways mentioned in this post. But no luck

Please some body help! Thanks in advance...

iTunes error 3194 can be caused by a variety of issues. The most common solution is updating iTunes. However, if you are currently running the latest version of iTunes, you can try the other solutions posted here. Hope this helps!

in my case i solved the 3194 issue by disabling the firewall in my router, and in my computer, whilst the restore occurred.  Essentially my firewalls were preventing apple from looking into my computer for an id check at the end of the operating system update, and that is what was causing the update/restore to abort. 

This worked for me i was able to look in my hosts and it had someething else so i took that off and i deleted itunes and installed it back up and i was able to restore again...

Thanks zeoli! You're the best! We were porbably only two who's phone's were messed up that bad XD. But thanks!
