Unplug it and there was a new iTunes update a few days ago, Make sure you are running the latest version and then try again in DFU mode and you should be ok.

I have the latest iTunes version [iTunes 11.2.0.115]

And I know how to put in on DFU Mode. But when I connect the iPhone with the PC it starts on Recovery Mode.

I have corrected the HOSTS file, but still same.
By the way this iPhone was Jailbroken [ iOS 7.1] with geeksn0w

Copying and pasting my reply in another thread with a similar issue. Sounds like you just need to delete iTunes completely and re install it.

As far as your other issue goes: If you haven't already, update iTunes on your computer. Look for the update in "Help" in the above menu. "Check for updates." If the problem continues, delete iTunes and re-install it. This used to happen to me on occasion when doing a restore and that would be the solution for me other than restoring on a different computer.

Apple - iTunes - Download iTunes Now

Guys Thanks for your help. I solved my problem by changing the cable and the PC.

My PC was meesed up with his Hosts files, so I went in another computer and tried restoring with a different cable. It worked perfect.

Thank's again for your time

On one last thing I should mention it is good you asked the question and knew enough yourself to work through it. Good job.

I had this same issue before with my 4s and it ended up being a bad cable!
