Exclamation Brake pads sticking Pleas Help

Ok I replaced my Calipers Rotors and Pads on the front.

I noticed my front right wheel was extremely hot. I am assuming that the pads are sticking and heating up everything.
We had trouble bleeding them and it seemed a little spongy but tried about 7 times and got no better results.

Suggestions?

Anyone in DFW wann try to take a look at it?

if it we're me... and since i had this happen the same way not too long ago. I'd just return the caliper in question and try again. i had a brand new one fail out of the box, exchanged it, no more problem.
