can i restore using custom firmware that pwnage.app made to jb my phone?

[212rikanmofo]

I have jb my phone before with pwnage, but had to restore back to factory firmware... and I still have the custom.ipsw file that pwnage made for me. Now i was curious can i just use itunes and restore using that custom ipsw to jb my phone or do I have to go to the entire pwnage process again?

I tried doing this but after the restore process using the custom.ipsw i dont see cydia on my home screen at all... sigh... somebody please help...

It is best to use pwnage tool again, or just upgrade to the stock firmware, and then run redsn0w.
