I'm using mine on Straight Talk. I bought it unlocked tho so I'm not sure if it HAS to be unlock. The phone does not have to be rooted. The only thing you would need to do is change the APN settings for Internet and MMS to work.

It uses a regular sized SIM, does not need to be unlocked - just request the AT&T SIM from StraightTalk.

Yes, you need to use the StraightTalk APN settings - even though they can provision you on the AT&T network, they go through different APN's.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1525371 has more information that you can search through.

APN configuration is done through Settings -> Wireless and networks -> Mobile networks -> Access Point Names.
