Everyone calm down. Apple OS is written in Unix based language... when ported to Windows the ENTIRE program must be re-written for this work work which is a massive undertaking. This is why the first Winpwn took 2 months to come out after Pwnage. Give it a couple days to work the bugs out.. these guys are working hard to give you FREE software.

i tryed on 7.7, and 7.5 neither worked. my 7.5 keeps getting errors after i put the iphone in DFU mode. also these are working on two totally different computers to minimize the chances of the two itunes versions conflicting.
Anyone get it to work yet??????????

I can't get mine to build a iPSW so I'll just wait a bit to see what happens with the new one that's coming out today. Hopefully they'll explain it a little more.
Pretty awesome how quickly this came out though, GREAT job!16GB iPhone 3G S⃣ White

Excellent can't wait to try it, does anyone know if you can still download apps from the app store?

Its just doesnt work, I had problems with the whole process from start to finish. I really love winpwns offical instructions, a nice 4 step process. Cheers for making us look like gourmless t**ts infront of mac

Right now im restoring back to 2.0 (custom ipsw gets an error (8) message) and Im getting real pi**ed off having to minamise itunes repeatedly because it thinks it can own my desktop.
Next time you make some software, make sure it works before you release it, and give detailed instructions so mongaloids like me can use it.

If I choose to "setup as a new iphone", is there any way I can transfer my contacts? I don't mind losing music/settings/etc as long as I can keep my contacts info.
There's no way to output save to SIM and then import SIM again? Or something of the sort to backup my contacts?
