i failed, i was trying to flash it and it was going all good till it finished the first time i clicked 'start' on odin. now my phone is stuck rebooting, if i try to hold the volume rocker down and plug the usb in it has a loading circle with a battery behind it, and if i boot it up the other way it just keeps looping

well i dont think you actually fully bricked your phone, you jsut soft bricked it. Where it cant do anything but you can still get it back to full functionality.

Were you able to get into download mode before you tried to install the new rom?

also what were you trying to flash with odin? Flashing back to 2.1?
