The status does change to charging when the USB cable is plugged in, but it doesn't actually charge.

Yeah, it actually says "Charged" for me when the USB is plugged in.

Mine started giving me trouble when I put that hardware 3d line in the text file. Afterward, all I got was "loading wallpaper" with a black screen. Seeing as the animation doesn't work with it on, I'm betting the live wallpaper suffers the same fate.

Quoting myself.

Are you trying a different wallpaper? I have the 3d command in my startup and I have live wallpaper. Starfield wont work but lines is working fine. I even edited it to make the lines blue and thinner.

I've got to say, I didn't try the lines one. Starfield was the one I wanted and when it didn't work I gave up. Trying to set up the new NRGZ rom and play with android at the same time is starting to get to me.

Try lines. It could be that some wallpapers work and some dont. Maybe starfield is too graphic intensive which is why it has an issue with previewing it. Did work fine before the 3d command tho.

I haven't looked around much, but I downloaded the latest version to check out the memory piece.

The changelog mentions:
Try to take 17MB of SMI bank2 for userland apps. Lowers diam100's 2D pmem to 12MB

I forget to check what I had before.. Can someone who hasn't loaded the latest version htc-msm-android@20100310_213242

check out the amount of free memory.
To be consistent with what I'm comparing to,
Open -- Advanced Task Killer Free
Click on KILL selected apps (with all app checked including Advanced Task Killer Free)
Open is again (the only item there should be Advanced Task Killer Free)
What does it show as the amount of Available Memory (above the "KILL selected apps" button)

Mine shows 90M

Another good way to get the total memory is to open the terminal app -- pTerminal works for this, thankfully (it doesn't work for a lot of things) -- and type 'free' (without the quotes). It tells you total memory, used, shared, free, swap, etc.

Pretty sure nothing that's been committed lately is going to have an effect on those numbers, though.

Edit: Of course, it'll also say that almost all the memory is always in use. I think that's just a function of linux and Android memory management. Nothing to worry about. Task Killer is more useful for seeing how much is free in Android. Though there's some thought that actually killing tasks is not the best idea.

Same here 100% all the time, wallpapers work fine just click and hold on the home screen to change. Also the battery maybe messing with WM battery calibration a little.

Are you talking about regular wallpapers or live wallpapers? The issue is that the live (animated) wallpapers aren't working with the latest builds

My live wallpapers work fine with the release before the last one. Go to marketplace, download live wallpaper picker. Then hold an empty space in the homepage, wallpaper, live wallpaper picker.
