This is the low down on our tools for use with the 3.0 firmware from Apple, read the whole post in full before attempting anything. Because of some bugs and unexpected changes this will be a multipart release, starting with the release of PwnageTool for Mac OS X. QuickPwn for Mac OS X and Windows will follow sometime soon, please don’t bug us about it, we are working flat out to get everything finished to release them.

GOLDEN RULE: If you are using a 3G iPhone with yellowsn0w and rely on yellowsn0w to obtain cellular service, then you should NOT use PwnageTool right now. UltraSn0w is not included with this release and therefore your baseband will be locked and unable to use an operator other than the official one it was bought for. UltraSn0w will be release via APT (cydia and icy) soon. If you have an original iPhone (1st generation) then 3.0 unlock works with this PwnageTool release.
Yellowsn0w in its current form will NOT work with the baseband version that is present in the 3.0 update, you will need Ultrasn0w, which will be released sometime soon, Ultrasn0w will work with all iPhone 3G models (but not 3GS), even ones that were previously unlockable, Ultrasn0w (when available) will be released via APT (this means you can get it via Cydia or Icy).
Please read all parts of this post before downloading and using these tools.
Read items 1, 2 and 3 again and again.
At the bottom of this post are the bittorrent files for the 3.0 capable version of PwnageTool.
This app is suitable for the recent 3.0 release.
PwnageTool will NOT work for the iPhone 3GS.
PwnageTool WILL work for Original iPhone (1st Generation), Original iPod touch (1st Generation) and the iPhone 3G.

Baseband 101
The ‘baseband’ is the generic nickname given to the internal components of the iPhone that handle the phone calls and Internet access. This ‘baseband’ is a tiny and unique independent computer system that runs inside your iPhone, it is separate to the main system that handles the applications (such as email and google maps) and it talks to the main part of the phone over an internal communications network. Think of it like a cable modem or other peripheral that is attached to your home PC that needs occasional updates. When a software update is released and presented to you within iTunes the baseband is sometimes updated (to fix bugs or add new features). The 3.0 update for the iPhone 3G contains such an update, so running the vanilla updater straight away with iTunes will reprogram and update the baseband.
SIM Free/SP Unlocked/Factory Unlocked iPhone 3G
This applies if you bought your iPhone 3G for $$$$$$$. This model of iPhone 3G doesn’t have an Service Provider lock (aka factory unlocked) and you are able to put any SIM card into the phone and get service. Your phone is already unlocked so you do not need to worry about baseband updates, simply upgrade to 3.0 using iTunes and then use PwnageTool to create an ipsw and then use this to jailbreak your phone.
iPhone 2G (1st Generation)
Use PwnageTool to do the magic and then restore with iTunes using your newly created .ipsw ‘nuff said, you don’t need to worry about anything, the baseband will be unlocked, the phone jailbroken.
iPod Touch 1G (Original iPod Touch)
Use PwnageTool to create a firmware image and restore with that .ipsw using iTunes.
iPod Touch 2G (New iPod Touch)
Sorry, no support at this time within PwnageTool, use Redsn0w for an earlier (pre 3.0) firmware release instead.

have a 3G from italy - so it's unlocked

tried three times to recover with a frimware from expert modes - everytime I had no cell network the cell option was missing in the settings menu. wifi worked.

now I'm trying to recover with a ipsw from beginner mode. wish me luck!

hey, not sure where else to post this. I am having issue with no signal or carrier after jailbreaking. I had 3.0 developer GM installed (md5 hash was same as itunes release), I also had ATT_US.ipcc the 5.0 that enabled tethering installed. Did the jailbreak, chose not to install cydia only icy, and left classic boot menus. built custom .ispw, and then restored fine using itunes. then restored from backup or original phone. No signal or carrier listed, all i have is an empty signal strength indicator. The tethering was still enabled in settings (odd). I tried reinstalling the ATT_US.ipcc 5.0, no change. Restored again, chose to make new phone, no change. restoring now to 3.0 w/out jailbreak. will post as it goes. anyone have any ideas?

Office 5280, if you have a regular mobile contract before build the custom firmware pwnage tool you need to unmark the option activate.

Then build the custom and proceed to restore with it.
That's all

After the restore complete you wiil need to wait the iTunes activate your Iphone it can be instantanely or leave some minutes.

soo when ultrasn0w comes out in cydia, will we be able to use the package installer thing in pwnagetool to be able to prepackage ultrasn0w when making an ipsw?
