what to i do when selling an iphone 3gs?

Q. Hi i am selling a iphone 3gs 32gb and i was wondering how to jailbreak and unlock it. I dont know if i should. I just got a brand new screen and all the buttons work perfectly. How much do you think it i could sell if for and its running on 5.0.1. I have no idea how to jailbreak it to make it untethered and is there any way of unlocking it using cydia? Thank you so much for your time.

A. First of all there is not an untethered for iOS 5.x.x yet- if you read through my answers you will see the countless times i have explained it.

And also selling a jailbroken device is pointless, because the new owner will only sync it to their computer so they can add apps, music, videos etc. Which will un-jailbreak it.

I think you could be looking at $150 - $200 for it.
Also the iOS the device is running, has no impact on the selling price of the phone.

Also with unlocking- trust me on this one. If you don't know what you are doing 100% don't do it. Without creating custom IPSW's you will upgrade your baseband and MESS UP THE PHONE when you try and jailbreak it.

Can i buy an iphone 4s 32 GB from apple or somewhere else and activate it with virgin mobile?
Q. I really want the iphone 4s but its plans on other networks are so expensive except for virgin moble, but on virgin mobile the iphone 4s 32 GB costs more than double its origional price or $300, so can i buy an apple iphone 4s 32gb from somewhere like bestbuy or radioshack and activate it with virgin mobile.?? thanks for your help

A. Not for now. I heard that Apple was going to roll out iPhone for Virgin Mobile.
Virgin Mobile runs on CDMA, and Verizon and Sprint are the other companies that runs on the same technology. AT&T use GSM.
