I bought a Verizon phone I'm using on MetroPCS, the phone was great but hotspot wasn't working so I decided to get CM13 on it. I purchased a SunShine code, got my phone unlocked, S-OFF and rooted, installed SuperSU, then installed TWRP (Official) through the PlayStore app but apparently I installed it on the wrong partition. The instructions on the TWRP site said to just press install and I never had this issue before with any of my previous phones so I didn't even think about checking the partition location... Now the phone has no recovery or OS. When I power on the phone I get the following message:
"This build is for development purposes only. Do not distribute outside of HTC without HTC's written permission. Failure to comply may lead to legal action"
If I try to boot into recovery by pressing and holding power+volume up I get to a menu that I believe to be the bootloader:
*** UNLOCKED ***
M8_WLV PVT SHIP S-OFF
CID-VZW__001
HBOOT-3.16.0.0000
RADIO-0.89.20.0222
OpenDSP-v26.2.2-00538-M8974.0106

When I select RECOVERY I get a black screen with a red phone with an exclamation mark in the middle.
When I select FACTORY RESET I get a black screen with a green phone with a recycle icon in the middle
When I select FASTBOOT I get another menu that gives me the following options: HBOOT, RAMDUMP, REBOOT, REBOOT FASTBOOT, POWER DOWN
I've been googling for hours but I can't decide what to do next. I dont want to further [Removed by Moderator] up and hardbrick the thing. Hopefully someone here knows how to fix this. Thanks in advance for any help provided.
PS: This is my wife's phone and I wont hear the last of it if I [Removed by Moderator] up her new toy... S.O.S!!
