0	Try holding in the home button, and plugging it into your computer. I think that works... answered Mar 03 '11 at 20:57 Justin 8.4k●104●143●222

1	To enter DFU you need that button. To enter recovery mode you can use some type of software like TinyUmbrella.. answered Mar 03 '11 at 21:01 Giorgio94 1.0k●69●81●94

NOTE: THIS IS FOR WINDOWS Download this ,extract it somewhere convenient, such as C:/ on search (or run, depending which OS you are running) type in c:/dfu/dfu iBSS.m68ap.RELEASE.dfu The phone's screen should turn white, or black. And then BAM in DFU mode.

0	Contrast to what those people said, you can't. You need that power button to go to DFU mode. I suggest getting the part and fixing it yourself, if you're out of warranty. Amazon is a good place to look for your device's flex cable. answered Aug 30 '12 at 15:00 DJ Scooby Doo 9.5k●232●279●379
