Yes, its a simple flash that only takes a minute or so, does not interfere with current ROM, just Unlocks....

Yes, i use a AT&T prepaid SIM card in mine. all you have to do is go to phone settings, set to use GSM or CMDA ONLY, once you set it shows avaiable networks to connect to. in a matter of a minute or two, you'll be on a different carrier network......
*The phone is already unlocked for Overseas SIM Card Use*

Yes, that's correct.
