I followed the steps and got my 3G jailbroken just fine and running perfectly. When I tried to do the same on my husband’s phone, which is a 3GS, everything was going smoothly, until it got to the restore part when it gave me an error and now the phone is not even turning on. Can anyone tell me what happened and even better, how can i fix it?

Brandon, simply restore your iPhone in iTunes.

This worked perfectly using my Mac 10.6 snow leopard and Iphone 3gs 16gb os 3.1.2 (05.11.07) with the current version of PwnageTool (3.1.4)
The only thing not mentioned is when you finish you can then restore your backup of your iphone settings from itunes. It actually asks you if you want to do so. Also the new version on Pwnagtool will put your iphone in restore mode automatically if you follow the prompts.

(I programmed Microsoft systems for 30 years and switched to a Mac about 2 years ago. I used to make fun of Apple users. I will never go back unless of course Apple buys Microsoft and makes their OS available to all the clones. Would that be a MacAsoft OS? Of course that thought makes me shutter.)

@ Dorkust and whoever else is having problems with Expert mode

If you’re on an official carrier, you must UN-select “Activate Phone” (which is selected by default) in General options.

It’s a bit confusing, but the checkbox checked means unofficial activation (for later software unlocking) whereas UN-CHECKING the box sets the phone up for official activation.
