Default Idle RPM

Hi guys.
i replaced my spark plugs yesterday. my idle RPM use to be 500 but now i have 1000 RPM. i did reset ECU (unhooked the negative side of battery for about one hour).
new spark plugs are Iridium IX and old ones where OEM.
any idea? or should i be worry?

is that an idle when your engine is warm or when it is cold, if its warm that something is wrong, but if its cold than its perfectly normal

it is when is warm. idle actually is 1200 RPM right now, and the exhaust gas smells really bad.
when i was replacing spark plugs yesterday, i also cleaned inside throttle with carburetor cleaner.
is it possible that damaged something? oh, and i toke it to advance auto part(because check engine light is on) and computer said high idle speed.

Arrow you will need these later

Once you are wearing the ivory wedding dress, it's best to avoid the lace wedding dress applying makeup. If you need to, do so carefully. And if makeup, wine or any other substance stains your modest wedding dresses on the day, you will need to seek advice about the designer wedding dress
