Would I be able to flash an Alltel Hero to CricKet? I want to know before I buy one. Thanks in advance

yes, you can. you can use this guide How To: HTC Hero Flash to Cricket with Talk, Text, Wap and MMS
only difference is, you can skip the steps to change your MSL to 000000, because alltel phones are already set to that.

Can it be Rooted and flash custom ROMS? I heard of some issues.

So ROMS wouldn't be a problem either?

CM6 is a good ROM, but MMS will not work on the Froyo builds with cricket.
