Internally Fried Samsung Galaxy S6 Hardware

So yesterday I was watching YouTube on my phone and all of a sudden it shut off. Not only did it shut off, it WOULD NOT TURN BACK ON FOR ANYTHING! It wouldn't even charge or light up no matter what I tried. So today I take my phone to the Sprint store to see if they could fix it they said they couldn't. They said they think it was internally damaged, like the hardware, and they just ordered me a new phone. That is cool, but I don't want a new phone, I want to fix the phone that I have. Is it in anyway possible I can send my phone somewhere to have it looked at and repaired internally?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

I was watching a video on my phone when it died. I put it on the charger and when it was fully charged, I took it off the charger and tried to turn it on. It didn't turn on, so I started freaking out. I held the power button for a while but it still didn't turn on. Then I went to my mom for help. She suggested it was the black screen of death. Then my dad reminded her that you can't take the battery out of galaxy s6 active. So then, I went to my dad. He couldn't fix it. So then, I went to my last person, my 14 year old brother. He tried various combinations to try and get my phone back on. He couldn't do it either. The only thing we can do now is either try to get my phone fixed or get a new phone all together.

try charging overnight, different charger, wireless charger, different cable.

try cleaning out the usb charger port with air, compressed air, blowing in it, or cleaning out gently with a toothpick.

try holding power and volume down for 30 sec

try holding power, volume down and home button. if you get a green screen, press volume up, then hold power volume down, and home again for 20-30 sec. Now try to power up normally.

try holding power, volume up, home buttons,if you get a menu, then select clear cache partition, then try again but this time select reboot to bootloader or power down

try smacking the side of the phone with the power button fairly hard on a paperback book, and jiggling the power button around,or scraping around the edges of power button with a fingernail or razor blade
