So I accidentally updated my Iphone 2g into version 3.1.3 on itune. I tired bunch of methods Pwnage, redsn0w, Spirits and none of them seems to works. My phone are just permanently suck on the "active phone" screen, even after I restore using redsn0w.

So are there any ways that I could jailbreak it again ? Or am I just screwed ? :confused:

Thanks in advance !

Have you tried to use Pwnage Tool with a 3.1.2 firmware instead?
 
I upgraded a 2G iPhone to 3.1.3, and using redsn0w was very easy to hactivate, jailbreak and unlock. Did redsn0w get any kind of error?
 
Yeah none of them work =/

Ok here is what I did:

1) I hold power and home button to put the phone in restore mode.
2) Connect it to itune and shift click the restore button.
3)Navigate to the "iPhone1,1_3.1.3_7E18_Restore" file. And wait for the phone to restore
4) Once that is done I run redsn0w 0.9.4.
5) I follow all the on screen intructions all the way until the "waiting for reboot screen". But it just stuck there. I was able to get pass that by manually turning the phone on.
6) after some more loading screen it lead to the finish screen.
7) I turn on the iphone but it's back on the "active phone" screen. The jailbreaking failed. =(

Did I do something wrong ? Please Help ! Thanks for all the answers.
 
Ok guys I got it to work.

I had to use itune to update to the official firmware. And than do a restore using redsn0w. And it worked.

I guess it was my phone's firmware that was broken.

Thanks guys for all the answers. :D
