If you got a Touch Pro you are in the wrong part of the forum. Have you tried flashing from the bootloader?

GSM ROM on a CDMA phone?

Probably the only thing that is gonna help ya is to flash VIA MicroSD card. Flash a CDMA rom. Good luck!

on my Sprint TP I just held down the top power button and the volume down button then pressed the soft reset button. I let go of the power and volume buttom when a red, green, and blue screen appears. Then, I just flashed a ROM as normal... with the TP connected to via USB. It should say "USB" at the bottom.

You're in the wrong forum asking about flashing the wrong rom. Not everyone was meant to customize their phone.

LOL,

STEP NUMBER 1: Know what type of technology your device uses..GSM or CDMA

STEP NUMBER 2: GO TO CORRECT FORUM AND LOOK FOR THE CORRECT ROM TYPE

STEP NUMBER 3: HAVE ENOUGH KNOWLEDGE ABOUT DEVICES BEFORE DOING STEPS 1 AND 2

if your not carrying an expensive paperweight your really lucky budd

Well, what's done is done. I think he knows now what mistakes he made; no point kicking the guy while he's down. His phone is broke, he came on here to ask advice. If you think he's stupid and don't want to help, just ignore his post. You don't have to come in and be rude.

To OP: Yes, you'll need to get an appropriate ROM and reflash the device through the bootloader. You'll want to check the TP forum for the details, but you can do it through the SD card if you can't seem to get it to work through the USB cable from the bootloader (though both ways should work for you). As long as you can get to the bootloader, you'll be fine. If you flashed the wrong bootloader when you unlocked it, that's another matter, but otherwise, your phone is fine, you just need to get a proper ROM on it.

Just get the phone into bootloader mode(for christ sake i hope you flashed the right unlock at least but then again new unlocks from what i know will not let you flash if its not meant for your phone) and then flash new rom. My friend did it 2-se yes he is a retard and both times i was able to bring it back with steps above, now waiting for the 3rd one. Dont panic i am 99% sure you'l recover it
