I found my own way around this. I'm at work so don't have any proof right now but when I get home I'd be more than happy to post it. With PwnageTool I built my own custom firmware, then when it asks if its been pwned before you hit NO and follow the steps. iTunes will first come up with an error that the iPhone can not be detected and that you need to plug it in again. Just hit Okay and give it a few seconds and it will come up in DFU and recognize it. This is the only way I was able to sucessfully restore to 2.1 Pwned. Let me know if anyone else is able to do this.

Can't quote, on iPhone

People are on about 10.5.5 not 10.5.
Obviously pwnage will work on earlier versions.
Can't see winpwn failing to work on vista and xp. Although winpwn already has given more errors in iTunes than pwnage ever will for a mac lol. Just focus on quickpwn dev team lol

ok, i had the new pwnage running making my custom ipsw for a STOCK 3G, when i remembered i needed to install itunes 8. i had 7.5. while the ipsw was building i updated itunes to 8 with software update. i already had 10.5.5
weird part is, i have never had pwnage ask me if the phone was for legit use or not, nor has it ever asked me for the bootloaders.
everything on the phone works. still slow as hell to boot and glitchy. cydia, installer, and winterboard crash randomly. customize wont even ask me to create an account. just says can't run offline.
i havent tried with a previously pwnd device. will try soon.

maybe we need to drop back to itunes 7.7
SCREW THE GENIUS BAR!!!
if i cant restore my phone, the genius bar is not worth it!

I recently update to 2.1 firmware and tried to use Pwnage Tool to Unlock and Jailbreak bout it would only stay in the boot logo. im using an ibook G4 running leopard and the newest edition of Pwnage. i am using a 2g iphone 8 gb. i have Leopard 10.5.5 i used quickpwn and it worked but when i tried to restore form a backup it would freeze and i had to start all over again so it finally works with quickpwn w/out restoring from a backup but never got pwnage to work right tried it in DFU mode and recovery. they both did the same thing stuck in boot screen. and itunes recognizes it and syncs with it and backs it up but still on boot screen.

Yes, Customize is broke all around. This pwnage update seems to be only a 10.5 to 10.5.5 update issue. Yes, I am on Windows and my 2.1 works. I had to downgrade to iTunes 7.7.x and restore to 2.0.2 and then Pwn with a 2.1 firmware before upgrading to iTunes 8.0 - maybe it will work on Mac? Just trying to help!

actually customize does work.. i believe alot of the artowrk changed.. thats why the file sets and themes may not be changing.. i use customize for change the strings for example.. instead of slide to unlock mine says.. Grip's iPhone.. and the slider is black nobody ever know what to do with it..

before you restore your phone must match certain certains that you had on that backup.. for example if you had five icon dock.. you must install five icon dock before you restore from backup.. this also goes for categories..

Sorry, poseidon, to get off topic, but Sure, Customize works for string editing, but try anything else! All you have is an error message about working offline and you must go online! If you have a different experience - I'D LIKE TO KNOW! Consensus is that the website is down and no themes can be uploaded - although Winterboard is 10X better!

yea, i got 2.1 to work. 2g iphone upgraded from 1.1.4. i got errors the 1600 a few times before it worked though. My screen went black and couldnt get into restore mode. I found that dfu and restore arent the same even though the steps are similar.
dfu: with phone on, hold down home+power 10 sec, then home for 10sec.

restoreower phone off, then hold home+phone 10 sec, then home for 10sec.

once i got the phone in restore, restored with custom firmware 2.1 and was up and running.
