Sharing resources/status checks DO WORK and they have been even after the patch. However, it will not work if you have not placed a Town Hall in your second city and have not requested the resources from your first city in region view. The Town Hall is a requirement in every city if you are going to share anything with other cities.
There may also be some lag/server issues where it may not process the requests for your region immediately, but those issues are generally isolated to the server you are on.

I have the town hall and still not able to share resources (did not create a new region) ie give money, police, buy power, etc

It must be a server lag issue then. I just did it last night on NA West 2, and it took a few minutes to kick in, but it worked. All I had to do was plop the Town Hall, make sure it had workers, and then I went to region view and chose the resources I wanted to share from my previous city. It took about a minute or two to recognize the other cities in the region, but I was able to get power, water, and sewage services from my other city in the region.
I wanted to chalk this up to server lag, but we were attempting multiple resource exchange and a time frame of a couple hours. I believe i am on NA East 2.
As a complete aside to this: who are the monkeys in the EA executive team (now i assume) did not give the respective resources to the division that runs your (IT) Infrastructure. Do any of you stop and attempt to communicate the parameters of a launch of a highly sought out franshise? Or, idea!, attempt to stress test with an open beta a month before launch, or even longer (i believe Dark Spore had an open beta at one point, but had several closed beta weekends (see 2011))... Clearly $$$ was all was seen; and an understatement to voice this as a disaster. What do I know? At least in comparison, Darkspore was a more successful always online launch!
Tnis is not correct. Played last night and was able to share resources, send gifts, etc... no problem (Ocenic 2 server). Tried playing this morning and now gifts aren't showing up. I can only assume that it is due to the server being down or this feature being disabled on the server. I have to admit I am starting to join th ebandwagon of people that are complaining about how poorly this whole game has been delivered.
