Verizon TP works imediately after flashing new rom, but stuck boot splash thereafter

I have a verizon Touch pro. First I unlocked it per instructions on this forum. Then I flashed it with the ElectonicRice kitchen. But it got stuck on the boot splash screen. So I got it back in bootloader mode (it would not hard reset) and then tried it again with the same result.

Next I tried the ppckitchen.org WM6.5 build:

I was able to use the kitchen to build a rom and flash it to my Verizon Touch Pro. After the rom was flashed to the TP, it started up and I went through aligning the screen and was able to use the device.

However, upon a soft reset (changing the battery or pressing the soft reset button), the TP would again get stuck on the first boot up splash screen. If I soft reset again, same result.

So, I reflashed the rom to the device, and was able to use it that FIRST time after flashing the rom, but again upon a soft reset the device will get stuck on the boot up splash.

Anything I can do to fix? I've tried two different kitchens now.

p.s. I did search this thread for "splash screen" and "boot splash" and only came up with one relevant question like mine but it never seemed to have been answered that I found...


I broadened my search and found this:

But I just double checked and NO, I do not have the Cambridge BT checked... I did try to put a lot into my ROM. Maybe it'd be helpful for me to list all the stuff I checked??? I'll type it out if that helps...

Help! I just bought a new TP and haven't been able to use it.
