Itunes then restored the iphone to 3.0 and everything works fine (except for all the installous apps, and cydia repos i had installed)

If the iPhone has been pwned already, you don't have to put it in DFU mode, but just in Recovery mode, as you did. This is the right process.

BTW in my opinion PwnageTool is the best solution, bcs safe and quick.
