You can re-use it again and again. Just make sure to put the "new" iPhone into DFU again.

iPhone 3G (3.0.1; Redsn0w 0.8, Cydia, OpenSSH) 16 GB

Can you give me instructions on how to usewipwn2.5 with a custom firmware i already built?

Sorry if my answer was misleading.
You do have a custom firmware sitting on your PC that you already used on an iPhone.
You want another (still locked) iPhone been unlocked with the same custom firmware.

Connect the still locked iphone to your PC, quit iTunes if running.
Shut down the iPhone (red slider)
Hold start/sleep and home button on the iPhone for 10 seconds
let go of start/sleep but keep holding home button for > 10 seconds...
...until iTunes starts automatically and finds an iPhone in recovery/restore mode
let go of home button and shift-restore to the custom firmware

until you start restoring the iPhone screen is black (=DFU mode). You can re-use a custom firmware again and again on locked iPhones, just have to put them in DFU mode. Ne need to even start Winpwn for that.

hope that helps

You dont. You use winpwn to make the .ipsw file.
At this point just follow every guide out there from the point it says "So now you have a custome firmware put the iPhone into DFU......".

Thanks for your answer...just need to know you mean to say that i just need to restore another phone with custom firmware directly using itunes without needing to start winpwn?

Yes, thats correct. I do have three test iPhones, do that all the time once a new formware/pwn-solution is out. Only have one custom fw file.
Just keep in mind: A custom firmware made for a 2G iPhone is only to be used on a 2G iPhone ;-)

Ok, thanks for letting me know :-)

I'm wondering if we can just use already made custom firmware and restore using iTunes, what is this step in winpwn for, http://www.iclarified.com/images/tut.../7527/7527.png

As far as I understand from former versions of Winpwn, iTunes has to be pwnaged once (button iPwner in 2.0.0.4). Once this is done, iTunes will accept an iPhone in DFU mode.

From then the only thing to do if you have a custom firmware and a bunch of iphones that have never pwnaged before is to put them in DFU mode and shift-restore to the custom firmware.

If an iPhone has been pwnaged before (e.g. using another older custom firmware) you use simple restore/recovery mode instead of DFU.

Last note; my experience: I had used Winpwn 2.0.0.3/4 before on one iPhone. At the very first time I used the button "iPwner" only once. Then made one custom firmware. From taht moment on (same now at winpwn 2.5) I only put a never pwnaged iphone into DFU and shift-restore, already pwnaged just in recovery. Always worked, all my friends iPhones are on 2.0.2 using this way.
