You need to stop using that 'tester' and learn what your meter is telling you. The first time you tested the transistor with a multimeter it would have told you what the problem was. You are not alone. FAR too many people are relying on these cheap little testers and aren't learning to test with a multimeter.
 
I tried the multimeter first but the probes on my meter are to big to probe properly on these small chip transistors so it is a bit of a struggle for me thats why i tested with the lcr tester and thats how i found out its a pnp and not a npn
 
You can sharpen the probes. If you don't want to sharpen the ones you have buy a cheap set to sharpen or use clip leads to connect to small solid wires that you can sharpen and use as probes.

The attached image shows one being used for ground but the idea is the same.
