    You are trying to get to Odin Mode through CWM?

    Just power off your S3.

    Then press and hold Volume Down, Power and the Home key at the same time.

    If you cant go into download mode and really want to use your phone then your going to have to use a jig theres no other way unless you want to lose all the money you spent on your phone and buy a new one or unless you made a back up with cwm that you can restore

    I know some Roms have the power menu ability to reboot into download mode that may be an option

    unplug phone

    remove battery wait 5 mins

    reinsert battery

    do not plug any wire usb/charger

    press vol down + home + power

    should come in download mode

    try that
