More information is needed before we can suggest anything that would help. Start by telling us everything about your phone, what it was running, why you were going back to stock, etc.

Maybe you think we can just look into a crystal ball and divine what is wrong with your phone and how to fix it? No, we need more information. So, since you can't think what information to provide, I'll ask specific questions. You will need to answer these questions completely and thoroughly. (I hope you will, as you did not answer very much of the questions I posed in my last response.)
So lets start with those:
1. Tell us everything about your phone. How long have you had it? Did you buy it new or are you the second owner? What operating system was it running before you started the process that caused your question? I assume this means what operating system was on the phone when you tried to root? One would assume that since it wasn't rooted, it had been stock? Was it working normally before you tried to root?
2. What exactly did you use to try to root the phone? What method did you use, or specifically what did you flash to achieve root? You didn't get the yellow warning triangle from flashing stock, so it must have occurred when you tried to root.
Let's start with that. If I need more after you answer these, I'll ask.

Am I correct in assuming that after you first tried SuperOneClick, the phone was able to boot normally? I am guessing you were able to boot the phone or you wouldn't know that superuser.apk was installed.
And how did you know that the root didn't work?
I'm not sure exactly what SuperOneClick does, but I don't think it will work with stock 4.0.2.
By the way, since the S4 was released, a lot of people have left the I777 forums so I don't know if you'll find anyone else to help besides myself. I'll try to check on this thread as often as I can, but you may have to wait hours between messages.
Edit: Oh and have you tried to boot into recovery. If not, try it now. Hold down vol- vol+ and pwr continuously for at least two initial boot screens. And if you by some chance can enter recovery, I'll need to know that information.

Alright listen, you're gonna be fine.
You really dodged a bullet as your phone is SOFT BRICKED.
This is easily fixed, the phone I'm typing this with had the same issue.
First, get into download mode and make sure your battery is out, this is often looked over. As long as your battery is out before odining you're fine.
Now using ODIN I'd flash an official ROM from the Samsung site. Get that tar/md5 file and hook it up to PDA. Start the flash.
If it fails flashing try it AGAIN.
If it fails IMMEDIATELY then try a different ROM.
