Your Iphone cannot restore to 3.1.3. An unknown error 3194 occured. It SaYS.
 
have u saved your shsh in cydia. now im pretty sure when restoring u have to change the host file name on your pc so it thinks its connecting to apple when in fact its cydia.
 
not my work. just a copy and pasted quickly


Now there is no official way to downgrade to OS 3.1.3 from iOS4, but there is always an unofficial way. Here are the steps to downgrade from iOS4 to OS 3.1.3 –:

1) First navigate to “c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\” and open the ‘hosts’ file in notepad. To do so, right click on the file and select Open With->Notepad. At the end of the document, add this string

“74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com”.

2) Now connect your iPhone to iTunes in recovery mode. To do so, first switch off your device. Then press the Home button on your handset and connect the USB cable. As soon as you connect the USB cable, the device will boot up and a “Connect To iTunes” screen will be displayed. Users can now stop pressing the Home button.

3) Fire up iTunes now. You will see your iPhone/iPod Touch detected in recovery mode. Now, whilst pressing the Shift key for Windows users or Alt key on the Mac platform, click on the Restore option.

Now just select the original OS 3.1.3 and voila, you are done.

Yeah you may need to do the notepad thing first, I aint sure, as mine is already set to those settings. You can definately restore or downgrade using the SHSH files, as I did it at the weekend from 4.0.1 to 3.1.3.

do everything u did as off before but change the host file first by adding

74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com

remember to run as admin when changing the host file.

so it should look something like this after editing it.

# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.

# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual

127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 activate.adobe.com
#127.0.0.1 gs.apple.com
74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com <————






then put your phone in dfu mode as u did before and when restoring your 3.1.3 file press the shift button on your keyboard and it should go no probs
