Hi,

Today the Rock App messed up my phone and I am stuck on the apple logo. Upon trying to restore to 4.0.1 it said it could not restore and gave me an error "3194." I saved my SHSH with TinyUmbrella and when I click on Display SHSH it tells me that my specific iPhone 4 CAN be restored to 4.0.1 yet I keep getting the error. Please for the love of god help me as I do not want to update to 4.0.2 and I don't want my phone to stay bricked! How can I fix this?

Stop Jailbreaking and you'll be fine. Too risky.

How are you attempting the restore? Something like this? I've also read that people using Wifi Sync have needed to uninstall that before the restore would go through...see here.

Not really...the only "risk" here is that he'll end up at the current Apple firmware that comes with any brand-new iPhone.

Or did you mean he's at risk of losing all the wonderful added functionality that comes with jailbreaking? In that case, I agree!

Thank you so much! I used the guide posted above by Massie and now I am up and running and jailbroken as well! thanks again Massie

i want to JB just for multifl0w stupid 4.0.2

I like the JB for the SBSettings, but reverted back because of the rapid battery drain.

Are there improvements that could be made to the current iOS? Of course. Do I feel that I need them enough to risk all the headache/ possible loss of data if something were to go wrong while jailbreaking? Not in a million years.

The only data I have ever lost through a jailbreak was my progress in a couple of games. And honestly I wasn't that broken up about it because I have yet to find a game I'm seriously invested in.

Any app data can be retrieved when restoring to a backup. Any personal information such as contacts can (should) be synced to the cloud.

Now if your phone is issued by work it's another story, as it technically might not even be yours.
