sprint htc a9 boot loop after conversion [SOLVED]

[welfare]

I tried to pm xtc2clip lastweek but didn't get a response. I have sprint htc a9. I followed the guide to convert. Did sprint tab sim unlock, then I went cid to 11111111 and then s-off. Restart device, put in ftm and use clip for a9 conversion.
gave error 0000000010 or something like that. So now I can't get to ftm it just boots and then reboots and reboots, etc. Sometimes it will boot to os but has no Wi-Fi and no activation so it hangs at that screen and then will reboot. Please help. I tried flashing using flash tab but give an error for htc-fastboot exe cannot start. And using flash from sim gives signature error for any I've tried. I'm new to xtc clip and HTC device. Please help.

What do I change mid to?
what file do I flash?
When I try to use flash in xtctool it gives error saying htc_fastboot program cannot start.
I can use adb or sim flash?

[deepakgarg]

xtctool it gives error saying htc_fastboot program cannot start.

did you try other htc flashing ?
this must be windows problem

What do I change mid to?

try file number 516025 from support
if flashing doesn't start with xtc2clip software try command prompt method
you can contact me on skype (GMT+5.30)

I am sorry for long response time, I have been very busy
please explain better as I don't understand.
I use clip to change phone MID to 2pq91200?
then I use command prompt with fastbootexe to flash 516025 from support?
what is the command line?
I am sorry, I do not have skype.

yes, I did dot zip, but I needed to change to a comma to post it here as was flagged as a link in the forum and I do not have permission to post links.
