as long as you can get it into bootloader it is still alright

Yeah, as someone with a VZW touch pro, I've run into this problem on more than one occassion. Our gimped phones just do not like certain roms unfortunately. In case you don't know how to get to bootloader: hold the power and volume down buttons and press the reset button with your stylus. After a few seconds you should see your rainbow screen. You can now flash a new rom.
