iPhone-dev team released the QuickPwn2.1 tool for windows last week which works like a breeze and the UI makes it extremely simple to use. It unlocks iPhone 2G and jailbreaks iPhone 3G.

Surprisingly, the new 2.1 firmware upgrade doesn’t re-lock the iPhone. So, if you have an already unlocked/jailbroken iPhone running 2.0 or 2.0.x, just go ahead and upgrade using itunes 8 – it wont lock your phone again. (tested on 2.0, 2.0.1, 2.0.2)

more from the dev-teams blog:

Window QuickPwn 2.1

Step 1: Use WinPWN 1.0 To PWN Your 1.1.4 iPhone. If you need WinPWN Get it: http://www.winpwn.com/files/winpwn_1.0.0.3_RC1_Setup.zip

Step 2: Install BootNeuter (Available Via Installer).

Step 3: Run BootNeuter and have it Neuter your iphone

Step 4: Make sure your iTunes version is at 7.7

Step 5: Grab a pre-created IPSW Made with PWNAGE 2.0 Mac. If you don’t have one made you can grab one here:

Step 6: Grab ZiPhone (Yes its Crap But hey it will get us into recovery mode) (http://download.ziphone.org)

Step 7: Run Ziphone & Jump your iPhone into NORMAL Recovery mode (available via advanced settings area in Ziphone) — This is the most straightforward way to get it into the proper restore mode

Step 8: In iTunes Shift+Click the Restore button and find your custom IPSW Firmware file.

Step 9: The restore occurs (You should see a crazy pineapple while its running on your iphone). Then you should see bootneuter automatically come up (this is pwnage unlocking, activating and jail breaking your iphone).

NOTE: DFU Mode did NOT work for me so to be safe stick with normal restore mode.
