You have to buy a code as there is no way to unlock the AHD for free. In order to enter the code, you need to be on a pure stock or close-to-pure stock rom in order to enter the unlock code.

If you're an AT&T customer, they may give you the code for free.

Just google your carrier and request unlock. I know At&t has an online request form to unlock the carrier . As long as you meet the requirements there is no charge for this service. Thirty minutes after submitting the request At&t sent me the unlock code. T-mobile I'd imagine would do the same.

As for your other question, I am curious too. I just reverted my phone back to stock At&t. Got to find someone with a non At&t SIM to see if my phone is still carrier unlocked. I say it is.

The phone will be unlocked forever. I have never seen or read a post where a phone became carrier locked after being unlocked by entering a code.

If you purchased a used phone, put in a non-ATT sim after reverting to a stock rom to make sure you receive a prompt to enter your network unlock code. If you are on stock and don't the prompt, the phone maybe be hard locked to ATT and there is very little an end user can do to unlock the phone.
