Can you use Sunder on anything other than carried items? Like could I Sunder a wall or is that just a Strength check?

If you're trying to destroy it by dealing damage, it's a sunder attempt. Strength checks are used when breaking things through sheer force (e.g. bashing in a door, or pulling a rope until it snaps). That's why all noncarried objects usually have hardness and hit points, and things that could conceivably be burst through direct application of force often also have break DCs (manacles, rope, doors, locks, etc.).

I believe you can simply make normal attack rolls against unattended objects. They have hit points, AC, and hardness.

Pathfinder included a sensible rule where if you take a full-round action to line up a shot against an inanimate object, you automatically hit with a melee attack, or get a +5 with a ranged attack.
