Why is my phone freezing and rebooting over and over?

[AC Question]

I have a Samsung Galaxy Stellar 4G LTE using 4.1.2 Jelly Bean.

First I tried to root through the Android download. That wasn't working so I then downloaded the Windows one instead. That one took, so I thought. It went through the entire process and said "ROOT SUCCESS" and I waited several minutes for the "FINISH" icon to pop up and that didn't happen. So I unplugged my phone and reset it manually. Now it freezes up and keeps restarting on it's own. I'm unable to choose any actions at all. I did everything that the instructions had ask me to. I'm just wondering if I ruined my phone entirely or if there's maybe a way to get my phone back in use to try again? Oh and I don't have my phone activated with a carrier anymore and I just use it for Wi-Fi purposes only.
