iphone 4s ios 6.0 Error 3194
If you run into Error 3194 within iTunes when you are trying to restore
your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, you can fix it by temporarily blocking
Apple’s firmware signing services. Error 3194 seems to be triggered
when unsigned firmware is used, often during an iOS downgrade or even
during some restores. Here’s how to resolve the error:
Fix Error 3194
The fix is the same regardless of what operating system you are using:
Quit iTunes
Locate your hosts file, in Mac OS X this is /etc/hosts and in Windows this is c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
Open the hosts file with Administrator privileges
Add the following lines to the very bottom of the hosts file:
74.208.105.171 gs.apple.com
Connect your iPhone to the computer
Launch iTunes
Put the iPhone/iPad/iPod into DFU mode by turning the phone off and then
holding down the sleep and power button for 10 seconds, then release
the power button but hold onto the home button until iTunes tells you
that the device is now in recover mode
Use the iTunes Restore feature as usual with the iOS device
Once your iOS update is finished, remove the “74.208.105.171
gs.apple.com” line from your hosts file again so that iTunes can
properly update as usual. If you need them, you can get iPhone firmware,
iPad firmware, and iPod touch firmware directly from Apple.
If you are wondering what the IP address is that you are reassociating
gs.apple.com with, it’s saurik’s (of Cydia fame) signing server.
Open host with notepad.
Change it to this and save.
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
127.0.0.1 localhost
