iPhone 3G
If you have a Jailbroken iPhone 3G at 3.1.2 (but not jailbroken with Spirit) then you should create the ipsw with PwnageTool 4.0 and restore from recovery mode or DFU mode.
If you have an out of the box iPhone 3G you should restore using a PwnageTool 4.0 ipsw using DFU mode.
If you have a Jailbroken 3.1.3 iPhone 3G it is very possible that this can fail from recovery mode, if this failure happens you will need to restore using DFU mode.
As an alternative to PwnageTool, you can use redsn0w on iPhone 3G (on both Windows and Mac) as mentioned in our last post.
IMPORTANT! Whenever you need to enter DFU mode, you will need to do so using PwnageTool.

Update 6/21/2010
The latest redsn0w beta now hacktivates the iPhone3G. It's still only for 4.0GM on iPhone3G and ipt2g (non-MC version).
Did anyone manage to successfully and flawlessly jailbreak iPhone 3G on 4.0 yet, without a restore? Is redsn0w the only way? What's 4.0GM, is it the one that's upgraded through iTunes?
