You definitely still have air in it. They are very difficult to bleed because the bleeder is at the bottom and the air rises to the top. Try continuously pumping the clutch as that sometimes works the air out of the top. Don't give up. It takes a lot.

You can try but that will bring you back to square one for bleeding.

For what it's worth I've never had one "partially" work? If so it would be different hot or cold?? It's still has air is more likely just less now.
HT said up top they stink and do. I've gone off the wall and said just put the truck on its roof and bleed it that way - just kidding,

He's not taking me seriously about how hard these things are to bleed. It won't be any easier with the new master unless that one was bad but I'm betting it isn't.

It's not just us! A maybe to help? Try putting sealing tape or that thick molassas type old gasket stuff on threads of bleeder. Air could get in thru threads those are NOT made to seal at all the bottom point of a bleeder seals it shut off - know that.
It really can leak out the threads they are not "plumbing" yet used for hydraulics should be I guess long too late bleeders have been designed and will stay that way. Lots of types of threads, hex to grab other things it's either right or isn't like doesn't fit or stripped out - not likely if it holds snug when tight, Tom
