Yes, you would need an NRGz rom from the Rhodium forum at XDA.
The roms here are for CDMA phones only.
Yours is GSM.
HERE is the TP2 GSM rom forum at XDA.

yeah that's a cdma rom, that's why it's in the cdma section.. you won't really find gsm roms here... did you even hard spl your phone? you're supposed to do that and then flash a gsm rom if you're on tmobile. not sure if you've permanently bricked you phone since it does take you to some screen... but can you get your phone into bootloader by holding the volume down key and then pressing the power button?

Yes.. i can get back to bootloader.. thats a good sign..

Yes i unlocked it first .. like i said ive dove into a few phones before.. but i was just browsing looking for the best looking rom and your guys looked the meanest so i pulled the trigger..

does it look like this? if so, it's surely bricked. there's a way to fix it but there's not a lot of info on that as of right now.

Sort of.. but there was some red writing.. and like i said it does go back to bootloader.. so hopefully i can get something into it from there.. i posted at xda.. so hopefully someone has a magic sd trick or something to make it pick back up..

Forreal thanks all.. i know how annoying responding to someone who has provided nothing, who shouldnt have made such a simple mistake in the first place.
