straight from the iphone dev team:

Thanks to daring experimenters in the comments, we can confirm that yesterday’s redsn0w works for today’s 3.1.3 update for iPhone 2G. Just point it at the 3.1.2 iPhone 2G IPSW after doing update or restore to 3.1.3. So far we’ve only confirmed this for iPhone 2G.

Can confirm that this method works for iPhone 3G and iPod touch 1G too.

i guess you have to point redsn0w to 3.1.2 after you update your ipod touch to 3.1.3 first...i *think* thats what it says.

I believe how Redsn0w works is that you restore your phone like a regular one, and then you run redsn0w afterward... so I would think your problem is with the restore and not redsn0w.

Have you tried to run the restore again? Or is that the problem you're having.. if you hold down the Home button when you plug in your phone to iTunes that should tell iTunes that it needs to be restored.

Or you could try putting it into DFU mode.. http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1034

Or if you're getting to the part where you've run redsn0w and the phone has to restart.. I would echo what secretanchitman said.. make sure you are pointing redsn0w at 3.1.2 and not 3.1.3.

I am, i d/l'd 3.1.2 and have been pointing redsnow to it. It will not restart in the second part of redsn0w. I have tried to unplug/replug quickly but it wont restart that way either (have read this trick elsewhere)

Hmm.. Sorry.. I would try on the iPhone Dev Team's blog as well.. people are typically a little bit more knowledgeable about the whole situation there.
