I'm looking to jailbreak and unlock a 2G on 3.1.3.

Whats the best way to go about it?
 
redsn0w won't recognize the 3.1.3 IPSW.

The guide title says its for 3.1.3, but the actual text initially says its for 3.1.2 and then gives a link for 3.1.3, hahahaha

Could it be the same way as with 4.0.2 and 4.0.1, where redsn0w actually needs a 4.0 IPSW to work properly, meaning that I'd need to give it a 3.1.2 IPSW to JB 3.1.3?

EDIT: That was the problem. It actually needs 3.1.2 IPSW to recognize it.

Is it reversible? I'm testing it on a 2G I have laying around before I do it on the customer's.
 
Is the jailbreak reversible? Yes, just click restore in iTunes and restore it to the default firmware.
 
Worrrd. Went off without a hitch. The unlock was really easy too: just sit there and watch it do it's thing. :cool:
 
Which redsn0w version is made for the 2G?

For unlock...
Do we still need 2 other files...i think it's called bootneuter and something else?
