I got bricked? get cellphone, caution triangle and computer icon

I was ODIN EC05 and it locked up for 15 minutes. I pulled the cable and now I have a cellphone icon, a triangle with an exclamation mark and a computer icon

What can I do? Help please. Thanks!

Yes! I was in download mode before this. I odin as usual and even followed Rob's video. ODIN was in Modem mode and it wasn't progressing. Windows is not recognizing my phone. Is there hope?

you got a im client on pc? so the triangle is not same as dl mode triangle? pulling battery should allow you to get into cwm or recovery or (oh hell) dont you have a backup?

It is differenent looking than the normal download mode with the android digging, This a cell phone symbol with a doted line going to a computer symbol and a yellow triangle with a exclamation mark in the middle bewteen the cell phone symbol and the computer. It indicates a to ma a break in communications between the phone and computer, but i cannot get out of it,. ODIN doesn't recognize a com port.

pulling battery makes no difference. I cannot get cwm. I don't care if I lose data. No matter what I do I get the same screen. and it won't shut off unless I pull the battery.

well i guess you edited post, i had that screen when i first started and pulling battery worked with 3 fingers to cwm. see if you can get to dl mode again after pulling battery, make sure phone is off.
