Ok if it's obvious then sorry for this but, I have a developer device that was still on beta 1 and that's expired now, so I have the actual beta 3 .ispw file but I am having trouble restoring or updating the phone. I am using the shift/alt option but cannot install after extracting the software. I believe the error code is 4027. Is this due to the developer centre being off line, or something I'm missing? I tried restoring one of my beta 3 devices on another computer this morning with the file and it came up with the same error so I am coming to the conclusion myself that it is and not having access just now to the developer forums I'm looking further afield.

Would a local backup to iTunes (no access to iCloud with locked out expired beta) then restore to 6.1.4 waiting then till the dev centre comes back online for 7 be the best option to get the device usable?

Yes.
