I have an iPhone that has already been jailbroken via iLiberty+ with no problems. As rumors keep building up, I am thinking about selling my iPhone prior to the WDCC keynote so I can recoup enough of my investment to purchase the 3g. Knowing that unlocked iphones go for more online than locked, I want to unlock it. The situation I have right now is that I'm on AT&T.

When unlocking via iLiberty+, is there any particular thing I need to do to avoid problems with my current carrier? For example, will certain features not work (visual voicemail?)
 
No. Everything will work as if it wasn't unlocked. In fact since you will still be using ATT you wont even notice it's unlocked.
 
am I understanding correctly...

jailbraking the iphone can be undone with a restore of the phone. or un-jailbrake feature in ziphone?
however, re-locking the phone from an unlock is much harder? is that right?
 
No to relock, you can either use the Bootneuter.app, which the pwnage tool sticky explains a little bit about it. Or you can just restore from iTunes with Apple's firmware and that will knock it back to an out of the box state.
 
my iphone was jailbroken with the ziphone app. the unlocking apps say that the iphone should be 3.9 bl.... what does that mean??
 
I have two more questions. Will the iphone be still unlocked if I decide to reset it to factory settings? And what about making it compatible with TZones?
