@Genesis, try to put your iPhone into DFU mode and perform the restore again. Also, if DFU mode doesn’t work for you, try to put your iPhone in recovery mode and restore again.

i followed everything but a warning appears in the end The iPhone “iPhone” could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1600).
What should I do?

If you don’t want to install FireFox just to download it, go Safari>Preferences… Then uncheck auto-open “safe” files.

@DAC, as you're using iPhone 2G, I think you can download the PwnageTool 3.1 to jailbreak iPhone 3.1. Check out the updated jailbreak guide and hope it can resolve your issue.
