Root Help, battery came out during ODIN

[soamelt]

I think I just bricked my phone, my battery came out during ODIN flash. I now have computer and phone icon and get it to do anything else. Is my phone bricked?

Just unplug the phone, pop the battery back in and restart the ODIN process and see how it goes

It won't work, it keeps booting up to the same screen with the phone and computer.

I ended up taking the battery out for 10 seconds and holding the volume keys while plugging in. I was then able to get Odin to work!

You should never be flashing Odin without the battery locked into place with the back plate.

These phones are not "unbrickable"... especially during the sbl flashing stage.
