This happened to me before, not a problem.

My memory is a bit fuzzy but try to unplug the cord from your phone, then unplug the battery, put it back in then press power button and 1 at same time using this to turn on the phone.

Man, I remember the first time that happened to me, after all the researching I did before flashing, I never came across those symbols on any site or any explanation of what they meant. I sorta-kinda panicked but without being prompted I pulled the battery out and went back in to download mode (1 button + power button) and was back in business.

Now in CWM. Had to do three finger reboot while attached to USB. If I REBOOT SYSTEM NOW, I get the same screen

Going into clockwork isn't really going to help..unless you plan to make a backup....if something is damaged during odin, only odin can fix it.

Do go thru CWM take out your battery put it back in and press 1+power button. It might not work the first time but keep trying it.

I have pulled the battery about 50 times. I tried pressing 1 and power after pulling it did the same. Maybe I should flash the ROM again?

Did you try pulling battery then, then put it back in..hold 1 key and while holding 1 key press power?

if that fails, plug in the usb cord, take out battery and try powering it on + 1 key without battery

I love you guys. Ok, finally got normal download screen after multiple attempts. If I pulled the battery while in CWM, it worked. Now it rebooted into CWM and I reboot and it works. Thank you all so much!

It was doing it with the USB cord that got me back to CWM and then pulling out and then replacing the battery while in CWM that got me into download mode when I press 1+power.
