I don't think it's hard bricked. Which recovery are you using? Try clean install.

In ur recovery, go in mounts and storage.. in there, format everything except sd card..
then go back to main menu.. then, go to advanced.. in there, wipe dalvik cache..
then flash the rom.. then go to main menu.. select wipe data/factory reset..
then flash gapps.. then again from main menu, select wipe data/factory reset..
and then, reboot phone.. first boot will take time, so be patient..
and VOILA!! ICS on ur phone!!!

U are messed up, start again, go to bootloader, fastboot and flash stock ruu

Try formatting and reflashing (doing a clean install). You could also wipe the dalvik cache after flashing and reboot before flashing gapps.

Could you explain the steps you did before installation of Rom?
And did you do
Format system
Format cache
Format data in mounts and storage as well along with wipes mentioned?

For some rom installs you need to:
Wipe data
Wipe dalvik
Install rom
Wipe data
Install rom
That's right, wipe and install twice. I've also noticed that flashing gapps after my CM rom installs tends to mess things up, particularly on my D3. I install all of my Google apps manually.

I connect my phone using the usb cable and the flashtool detect my phone status, it works well. After that I use the fastboot mode and flash kernel (cm10.img) by clicking the 3rd option at the fastboot window. The process said everything that ive flash is okay. After that I did fastboot reboot. Unconnect my phone and push the volume up button when the purple led turns on. It goes to recovery mode. I did the wipe cache, then I install the cm10.zip first, when it finished, I install the gapps. After I done all those thing, I did the reboot into system as the tutorial did. When the phone reboot, its all going well. Until the cyanogenmod logo come out. The tutorial showed it tooks about couple minute and then the phone will go to the normal phone screen. But unfortunately my phone took about hours and still in the cm logo.

Make sure you wipe the dalvik cache. Dalvik is different than just the folder marked "cache "

If you are able to boot to recovery, can't you wipe completely? (System, cache, data) Once CM is gone you should be able to install other Rom. I'm a little confused how CM could continue to boot if it has been wiped from phone...

i wiped everything except sdcard in mount section even the dalvic cache but still cm boot animation appears :/
i think i cleared a system file which was related to the partition of the system in the advanced junk section of clean master app...
I HATE CLEAN MASTER

You can flash a Custom-Recovery using Odin.
You´ll find a link latest recoverys in my signature.
If Stock Recovery still boots you need to uncheck "Auto-Reboot" in Odin. When Odin finished flashing, wait 1 minute to be sure. Then directly boot into recovery from download-mode and enjoy the custom recovery.
This will increase your flashcounter!
Put your Rom & Gapps on your MicroSD Card
In CWM / CWM based recoverys:
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvic Cache
Wipe Data Factory Reset
format /system
fromat /data and /data/media (this will format your internal sd! be sure your rom placed on microSD card)
flash the rom
reboot (first boot can take ~30 minutes - if it still bootloops: something´s worng )
if everything working:
reboot recovery
flash gapps
reboot

Strange that reflashing the system didn't help. You could try it with an other recovery?

Did you factory reset, wipe cache and wipe dalvik/Art cache before you flashed?
When you boot to TWRP, did you select the "Wipe" option, then on the next screen select "advanced wipes", then on the next page select:
system
data
cache
Dalvik/ART cache
Then swipe the slider, then after wipe is finished go back to home screen in TWRP and select "install", then flash your ROM?
Sometimes you have to wipe system and data in addition to factory reset, wipe cache and wipe dalvik/ART cache before flashing a custom ROM.

Do you mean your device is bootlooping after flashing TWRP? Did you make sure your bootloader is unlocked before you flashed TWRP? If the bootloader is locked, flashing TWRP will cause a bootloop or will cause the device to not boot at all.
