Go to eBay and look for samsung dongle. They're about $1 shipped. (Or check in any repair shop and see if they have one you can use for a minute.) It'll get a hard-bricked phone into download mode. Then you can use Odin to flash a stock ROM.

Unless the hardware went bad. Then you just have to replace things - like the motherboard, probably.
