We present updated measurements of the branching fractions for the modes B0->pi0pi0, B+ -> pi+pi0, and B+ -> K+pi0. We also measure the time-integrated asymmetry C_pi0pi0 and the charge asymmetries A_CP(pi+pi0) and A_CP(K+pi0). Based on a sample of approximately 227 million BBar pairs collected by the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC, we measure BR(B0 -> pi0pi0) = (1.17 +/- 0.32 +/- 0.10)*10^{-6}, C_pi0pi0 = -0.12 +/- 0.56 +/- 0.06, where the first errors are statistical and the second are systematic. The B0 -> pi0pi0 signal has a significance of 4.9sigma including systematic uncertainties. We also measure BR(B+ -> pi+pi0) = (5.8 +/- 0.6 +/- 0.4)*10^{-6}, A_CP(pi+pi0) = -0.01 +/- 0.10 +/- 0.02, BR(B+ -> K+pi0) = (12.0 +/- 0.7 +/- 0.6)*10^{-6}, A_CP(K+pi0) = 0.06 +/- 0.06 +/- 0.01 . Using related BaBar measurements and isospin relations we find an upper bound on the angle difference |delta| = |alpha - alpha_eff| of 35 degrees at the 90% C.L.
