ok, I see you put in pads, did you check the two 17mm bolts that hold the caliper to the spindle? the only thing I can think of that would allow the pads to wear in that pattern is the calipers pivoting as you apply pressure to them.
they should be VERY TIGHT, and the caliper should not move at all. I would pull off the wheels, and check the calipers. loosen the pads up, and try to wiggle the calipers. they should not move at all in any direction.
the horrible noise was most likely just the edge of the pads touching the rotor hat. check this, and report back.
