They say they will change the motherboard.
But I think they are actually using Jtag to restore the phone! I think motherboard has the IMEI number assigned to it. Mine did not change even after I unbricked my phone with service center after using rom manager.
There is no spare parts for Ace in the grey market! Best thing to do will be giving it to service center!

+1.
go to the service center and use ur warranty.
If ur warranty is gone, make up an excuse.

One time, that happened to me and they didn't accept the warranty. sayin' its my fault?!
So, i made up an excuse saying that i thought this was a game and it sounded so fun...bla bla bla
I installed it then clicked on that, and then my phone didn't open.

and they got trolled, and accepted it.

man is your phone hard bricked or soft bricked
if it is a soft brick then it would get fine by simply flashing it with a new stock rom
is it hard bricked "means when pressing the power button and even on connecting it with a charger there is no response" then you have to get it's mother board changed from a service center and if it is in warranty then told tell them that it was rooted just say that it stopped working while using maps or any other pre-installed app.
