Root [MetroPCS/CDMA] Help! I'm stuck in ODIN mode!

I was not very smart and tried to root my phone without researching it first. I used the tutorial on Redmondpie dot com (First link that comes up when you search "How to root galaxy s3" on google). I got stuck after step 6. One issue may be that i used ODIN v1.85 instead of ODIN v3.07, but when i used ODIN it crashed halfway through. Ever since, its been stuck in ODIN mode.


It says "Downdloading... Do not turn off target !!"

In the top left corner it has :
ODIN MODE (in red)
PPRODUCT NAME: SCH-R530U
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: Yes (5 counts)
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Official
QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE (in gray)

What can I do to fix my phone? please help! :(

Since odin can restore your phone back to stock. I would say start the process over with the correct version of odin
