Don't know if you fixed it already but, was it spongy like that before the pads? What kind of brake fluid are you using now?
Also, you might try cracking the bleeder screw just a weeee bit with the reservoir cover off. were fluid doesn't come out of the bleeder as long as you don't have the lever pulled. Leave it for a few hours or overnight tighten and bleed as normal. Sometimes the bubbles just take a bit to work their way out.
The other option is buy a 27 dollar mighty vac and do it the easy way.
