' With no avail ' is incorrect.
You might wanna use something like 'to no avail' or 'of no avail'.
Ex-
He screamed for help but to no avail.
OR
It was of no avail to offer him support.
I don't really think 'with no avail' is correct.
Hope I helped .. !!

Please edit your answer to change wanna to want to. Especially at a site where formal English should be used, wanna has no place. I very nearly downvoted this for the use of that word, but decided to leave a comment instead.
