Unlock iPhone 2G/3G with Firmware 3.1 on WindowsOh we have a very good news for all those Windows users out there. You will now be able to unlock the iPhone 2G/3G right away without having to wait for the Redsnow tool. PwnageTool 3.1 was released earlier today by the dev team but the fact that it can only be used by Mac users and leaves no ticket for Windows users seems a little unfair, so we made things a little easy for you. We created the custom IPSW for Firmware 3.1 on iPhone 2G and iPhone 3G which lets you update without having to meddle with the baseband. This Firmware comes with the stock Apple logo and Cydia. All you have to do is download it, restore it and that's it. For the iPhone 3G Please use the links to download the custom IPSW of Firmware 3.1 for iPhone 3G labeled iPhone1,2_3.1_7C144_Custom_Restore.

As no Ultrasnow is needed, so you already done with everything. Notice that no bootloader files are required. Thats pretty much all of it. Those on Mac can make use of the custom IPSW in case they don't plan to get their hands dirty with PwnageTool which, to be honest, is not easy to go by due to lack of documentation. The Unarchiver can be used on the Mac to join the files and uncompress them. Note: Please test and give us your feedback in the comments. Make sure not to 'Update' the Firmware at any step, only use the 'Restore' feature.
