Sim Unlock Question - Bell Vibrant

Sorry for the dumb question but once the handset is unlocked with an unlock code, is it permanent? Will flashing new firmware relock it?
Thanks.

Yes, phone unlock is permanent (unless you relock it).
Note: phone unlock != sim unlock

It says
To install this ROM you will need to have an unlocked bootloader
You have unlocked bootloader you do not have a locked bootloader as this device does not have a locked bootloader for you to unlock.

Root, tell him to use Backup-TA to save his DRM keys, and then he can unlock the bootloader

Unlocking at&t bootloader

Has anyone tried a unlock code from a different carrier to see if it allows you to unlock? Just curious.

Not likely as every phone has a different fastboot unlocking code
