whats the best way to wipe everything of my iphone 4 and still keep the jailbreak and unlock on iOS 5.0.1 and baseband on 01.59.00 so i can sell it to someone? i know i can just use ultrasnow in cydia to unlock it right now, i havent ever needed the unlock before but the buyer needs it. so whats the best way to accomplish this?
Got a tip for us?

Do you have any SHSH saved ?
If not, Redsn0w or iFaith should be able to grab your 5.0.1 SHSH since you are on 5.0.1

or
You can sign out of iTunes and sync with an empty profile (they say, I have never tried this)
If its locked to AT&T you can purchase an official unlock for it.
For $3 or $4 and then its forever unlocked.

can i just use ultrasnow to unlock the phone and then erase everything of the phone and take the sim out? this way i dont have a lot of work to do and the new buy cant get any of my info off it. will that work?
or can i get PanicRoom within cydia to wipe everything? i just heard about that, wonder if it really works and is supported on 5.0.1. forgive but i dont have my iphone4 with me right now.
thanks

PanicRoom is old, doesn't work with some new firmware (I forget the cutoff firmware version)
If you think you can get everything out of/off the phone - you can try it your way.
Your AppleID will likely still be loaded into the firmware
