Unhappy Biting hamster - loosing hope

Hi friends!

I’ve had a winter white for about two months now and he bites me every time I go in the cage. And it’s a nasty bite, not a playful nibble.

I definitely am to blame for this. I didn’t do enough research prior to purchasing my hamster and I handled him too soon after bringing him home. I think it overwhelmed him. I also had him in a cage that the pet store recommended (yikes) and after researching realized it was too small. I upgraded his cage to a larger size and he seems more settled now (he stopped bar biting). But ... he’s still biting me.

I’m loosing hope and I’m not sure what else to do. I’ve tried the taming process and he is not warming up. Is there anyone who has had similar problems and overcome them?
