Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 in reboot loop

We recently purchased a Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 phone from Ebay. I accessed the Bootloader mode to see if the device was locked and now the device is in a constant reboot loop. We have tried a soft and hard reset and now the device will get to the Windows loading screen and then reboot all over again.
I can enter Bootloader mode without any problem. I have searched through the forums and found the procedures for flashing the ROM in bootloader mode but the problem still persists. The flashing shows 100% complete and the device reboots, but then it goes right back in to the reboot loop. I have to remove the battery for several minutes to get the device to shut off completely.
Can anyone provide some guidance on how we can get this fixed? Do I need to unlock the device before flashing the ROM? Can someone provide me with the links to the downloads I need?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Force to bootloader and reflash the stock rom.
Stock Rom
Thank you for your reply, but I have forced into Bootloader and flashed the stock ROM several times but the reboot loop continues. I have also tried flashing the stock ROM from the SD card. Flashing the ROM using either method appears to be successful, but everything I tried still results in the reboot loop.
Other things I have tried
Charged with wall charger for 48 hours
Swapped battery
Removed SD card and then flashed ROM
If there is anything else that you can think of that I should try, please let me know. We are passed the point of being able to return the device to the EBAY seller and this device was purchased to be used as a Hand-held PC so we do not have a contract with any service provider.
Thank you!
You could try flashing to a verizon or other CDMA operator's rom and see what results you get. Also could try unlocking and flash a custom rom. If you run out of options, send it to me and I will try to fix it for you free of charge. I will send it back to you within 48 hours of receiving it. Just include postage paid return packaging.
I appreciate the offer, but I think we have decided to just cut our losses with this device and move on. Thank you to everyone for your help!

[Q] Bricked/Boot Loop Galaxy Note 10.1!!

Hello fellow XDA members! I am a Noob.
So I believe I have a Bricked Galaxy Note 10.1. Model GT-N8013
I Rooted Stock ROM, and flashed Collective Edition 5 Dark Side.
So heres what happened, everything seemed fine, until I made a mistake, I was Pimping my ROM with the PimpMyRom app. Every change seemed fine and my note worked, but when i saw the double boot screen slide in the app, i did what it said, i have the imf support or something like that. Then after i had the ''support'' needed, i clicked install button on the double boot slide, it seemed to do something and requested nothing, so i went ahead chose a second clip, and clicked set as second boot screen. It said it wont take effect until the 3rd boot, so i rebooted 3x, but at the third time, it was stuck at the boot screen with the galaxy note 10.1 logo ! It did not start or did anything, over time it would turn off and automatically reboot, but it would get stuck again !.
To attempt to fix it, I Booted into recovery (CWM) and did everything i could. I wiped nearly all cache, factory reseted, then out of fear, i flashed the stock firmware ROM from Sammobile website, with ODIN, and to my knowledge, it got worse!! It booted, seemed to do something then in the logo screen it got stuck once again!! Stock recovery says unable to mount /efs, i don't believe EFS is completely corrupted, I left it stuck for awhile and it shut down in like an hour. Help, what can i do to fix this!?!?!?!
Device cannot boot up.
I could boot into recovery and download mode only.
I thought that I too had bricked my 8013 the past weekend. Trying to do something that I shouldn't. It took me a bit of work and a lot of worry (my wife gave me my 8013 for Xmas and if I had to tell her that it was now a doorstop, she would have killed me). I used this method to get back to stock and then was able to work my way back to the ROM I use. I disremember in which order I Odin'd things, but in the end was able to un-brick. All I can say is give it a shot.

Phone shuts off when trying to get into recovery

I just bought my wife a new phone (Razr hd ftw) because she was on the original razr and its pretty much no good anymore. I was giving her the luxury phone treatment. I rooted it, unlocked the bootloader, installed CWM, and installed cm11. Everything was going great but now for some reason when I try to get into the recovery...i get the moto logo, and its just shuts off. I flashed a new recovery twice, and it shows success on my cmd window, but its still shutting off when I try to get into recovery menu. Any suggestions?
**Update** I was able to get back into recovery after trying over and over again. I still have the issue where it shuts off, but its random. I wonder whats wrong :-/
Which version of CWM are you using and where did you get it?
This isn't the correct place to asking for help...

[Q] HELP!! Sprint Galaxy S5

Hello everyone! I was sincerely hoping that someone would be able to help. I believe I messed up my phone beyond repair by trying to root it for the 2nd time. I rooted my phone in Sept 2014 and accidentally dropped it and broke the LCD (not the actual screen, but a piece inside of the phone). Samsung replaced the screen but they had to reset it so I lost the root. I wanted to try to root it again today. I already had all the tools; Odin, Superuser, and Philz Recovery. I put the phone into download mode, flashed Philz, and Odin said "Passed". When I put the phone into recovery mode, it didn't look like it did before. It just looked like the android stock recovery. I assumed (noob) that I may have done something wrong. So I tried flashing it again and it failed and was stuck in the download mode (Do not turn Target off). I waited approx 30 min and just said, "Screw it" and pulled the battery. I know stupid. Then I got the "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue message..." I did some research and many people on here and other android forums were telling others with somewhat of the same problem to download the stock rom. I'm currently downloading it but am worried it's going to do the same thing; "fail". I will update as soon as I try to flash the stock rom, but if anyone has other options, I'd so appreciate them.
Thanks so much for helping.....

P.s. I had the most up to date software for Sprint (maybe that was the problem)

Softbricked Falcon XT1032

Hello guys.
I apologize for making yet another "my phone is soft-bricked" thread, but I have been through at least 20-25 of the other threads, seemingly tried everything, and I can't get past my problem. Also, most of the other threads I saw are pretty old and not really active anymore. A few of the tools there can't even be downloaded anymore because the links are dead.
Anyway, here's my story.
I have a 16 GB US retail XT1032 that I bought mostly to give tech support to my parents, whom I also bought a 8GB each. Theirs, I left untouched. Mine, I unlocked bootloader and rooted right away. All went well for a long time.
My parents kept receiving OTA's and it took them all the way to Lollipop. Me being rooted, I got stuck in KitKat somewhere (I'm not 100% sure whether that was in 4.4.2 or 4.4.4), but since it wasn't my daily driver, I let it lie as stock rooted KitKat. Recently I wanted to go to Lollipop in order to keep seeing "the same things" as my parents, and I installed TWRP in preparation to flash a "stock enhanced" version of Lollipop. TWRP flashed fine but there was something funny all along: I could use ADB or a root app to boot into recovery from the ROM, but I could never manage to get the phone to go into recovery by booting into fastboot (vol down+power) and then choosing recovery. Screen would go black and recovery would never load.
So I copied a "stock" Lollipop image and booted into TWRP from the ROM and wiped everything and tried flashing the Lollipop ROM. It got stuck somewhere part way, and a few hours later there was no more progress.
Ever since then, I am stuck in fastboot. Fastboot seemingly works correctly, recently I was able to flash an OG animation to get rid of the nasty "your bootloader is unlocked" warning. I can flash recoveries (TWRP and/or CWM) without error on the phone or the computer, but when I try to then boot into recovery using the bootloader, I get stuck on the black screen and go nowhere.
As others in the various threads have commented, when I try to boot "normally", I get the boot animation and a vibration and then it gets stuck.
I have tried so many things by reading different threads I couldn't tell you anymore what all of them were. I've gotten errors about downgrading, I've gotten stuck in fastboot reason: "failed flash", I've gotten flashing errors about the size of recovery or boot or gpt. What I've never managed to do again is to boot into anything other than bootloader. No recovery and no ROM.
Could someone with a bit of experience please point me to some working links and/or when you have the time, help me look at a couple of logs or something that can help me figure out where my problem lies and how to get out of it? my daily driver phablet died a gruesome death and I wanted to go back to my trusty moto g, to no avail.
Thank you very much to whomever can help.
Ruben.
Try to reflash full stock firmware for your device according to your bootloader version. Hope it helps....
Try typing in fastboot devices
