The one odd thing that it does though, is when I connect it to my computer, it pops up and my computer recognizes there is a device there. In my Device Manager there is an unknown device called: Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM. I have tried every combination of two buttons, including holding down the reset button with all of them, but nothing gets me anywhere.
If anyone could help, I would really appreciate it. Let me know if you need any more information.

Not sure what to tell you. I don't really know what that unlocker could have done when used on the wrong phone. Since your desktop computer still sees a CDMA device, you may be able to access it with an app called mtty. Look for that on XDA-Developers.com. You'll need to find out what commands to send to the device, but I think it's your only shot at rescuing your TP2.

I've been using the enter button to try to trigger bootloader. It has never worked for me.

Hi,

I think I did something stupide. I followed the upper procces for unlocking my HTC touch pro. Now it's dead, it doesn't respond on anything. I tried al the combinations for a hard reset/soft reset, but no response. Please help!

Not sure why it would have killed it. There shouldn't be any combination of keys that should cause that.

Try removing the battery for a couple of minutes, then try it again.

Yuck, I knew I was in a little trouble, but this guide worked perfect, should've paid more attention to the rom files, it was apparent they were botched somewhere in the unzipping....

Big time thanks!

i got a bad flash on my diamond. most of the time it hangs at the boot screen but sometimes it will load. my problem is that the phone no longer wants to be recognized when i plug a usb cord in. if it is booted the phone asks what i want to do but whatever i choose doesnt make a difference. activesync wont see it and it wont show up as a mass storage device either. i have a rom on the internal storage but it is the one that semi bricked my phone. if i try and connect in the bootloader screen it just says serial at the bottom and the ruu flasher will not see it. it just errors out with a usb connection failure. ive tried different usb cords and inputs on my computer. im running out of ideas here. any input would be appreciated. just to note: usb connection worked fine before bad flash and the phone has no problem charging from usb. also when it does boot into the os it is only functional for a few minutes. i have to reflash bad rom from internal storage to get past boot screen after phone locks up.
