Root Problem with Attain

The phone goes to the samsung logo and shuts off, sometimes it goes through the animation but still boots off.

At first I thought maybe it was a corrupted sd card so I took it out with no luck, then I thought it was a corrupted sim card so i took it out with no luck. I've run out of options.

I've gone to metro and the store clerk said it was too damaged, there was a scratch on the screen. I went to their headquarters and they said I'm past my year warranty so now imy only option is to fix it myself.

I tried flashing it with a new tar but it did nothing, any thoughts or comments? I can still get into download mode and all that so maybe there's a fix for it.

Please and thank you for your time

Well first off the sd card has nothing to do with whether a phone works or not since it doesn't run off of it and same thing goes with the sim card. Have you tried running the official update?
