Changed air filter on 2005 Chrysler Pacifica and now I have high rpms before it shifts gears

Never had shifting issues prior to changing air
filter, and now since I did, my car doesn't want to
shift until around 3000rpms. I checked all
connections and everything is hooked up fine.. I
even checked the mass air flow sensor on the
inside, and it was bent,  but not broken, I bent it
back, and cleaned it off, does it need to be in a
certain position?? Help please!
