Help Moved Samsung Galaxy J5 Firmware to SD card now no USB connection.

Hello all,

I have a Samsung Galaxy J500F. I rooted the device. While using SuperSU I transferred the Galaxy's system files (all files) to the sim card. After the transfer a dialog box popped up and asked me to restart the phone, so I did. Now the phone doesn't turn on, no flashing lights, no vibration, etc.

I also can't get into recovery mode. I've tried charging the phone via wall charger (I don't have the original phone cable) and nothing.

What did I do? I slightly tech savvy and can not figure out how to get a USB connection to at least flash a new ROM.

In need of help to restore my phone. Also, is my phone considered bricked?

Thanks in advance!
