iOS 7 Activation Error, and won't let me update back to iOS 7.

[phyllmoore52]

Okay, so I did all the DFU stuff with my iPhone and restored back to iOS 6.1.3, but when I try to update to iOS 2/3, it won't let me. That's what I originally had on my phone and iPad. Anyways, I get this error:

The iPhone could not be updated. An unknown error occurred (3194).

I don't know if I should try to download a newer beta version or what, but it's super frustrating.
Also, my iPad is currently stuck at the Activation Error screen and I'm afraid to restore because I still want to back it up somehow. I do have backups, but I just want to see if I can fix my iPhone first before I try DFU w/ my iPad. I supposedly got my UDID registered for $5, but it keeps saying:

Your iPad could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable...

I definitely learned my lesson, but Apple should be more honored that people are trying to get the beautiful iOS 7 by any means! lol.

If you are trying to update to iOS 7 Beta 2/3 then you can't as they have expired. You'll need to update to beta 6.

Yep. Betas 2 and 3 have expired and you'll just get an error whenever you tried to install them. Try getting the beta 6 .ipsw and updating to it.
