Hmm well not sure about this one.
 Maybe:' Oh well we gave it our best shot' ? ' There' s nothing left to do' Or alternatively: 'We went the whole nine yards, but nothing worked/ to no avail' (Something to this effect).

There's nothing left to do.
There's no way to convince him/her/them. They're not going to change their mind. There is nothing more we can do. We have no more options.
