Sorry you got no answer, but if you update your question and spell Caliper correctly, you might ge t more hits. In general, one thing that might cause the caliper to stick after a pad change is the piston getting gouges or even having a very small stone dislodge and fall in behind a boot.

usually a sticking caliper will cause this or a cheap combo of rotors and pads. check the caliper out again, make sure the piston in it isn't seized up and grease the rubber up a little. also make sure when putting on the pads you grease the edges so that they can slide easier. and lastly bleed all of your brakes.
