So my sleep/power button is fucked and does not work one bit and my phone is now stuck in recovery mode and says I need to restore it

Problem is, it needs to be in DFU and to enter DFU mode, you need a power/sleep button.

Help please!

im pretty sure you can use some jailbreaking softwares to put your iphone into dfu mode. maybe other i-softwares too. google it.
 
1. plug in iphone to computer2.back up iPhone

3. once backed up, unplug iPhone.

4. raise iPhone very high in hand.

5. force your arm in a downward motion.

6. release iPhone at bottom of swing

7. Profit?????
 
Trust me, I have and they almost all require downloading an app from the app store that I can't get to in recovery mode.

I feel naked without my music/phone :(
 
Somehow get it so it's off.

Hold home button for ~5 sec,plug in cable without releasing home button.

Keep holding til iTunes comes up.

Restore to a normal software (I'm assuming your're jailbroken)

 
Not jailbroken and if I'm not mistaken, holding down home only does the arrow thing that says 'connect to itunes' which is recovery mode

I get error 21 on itunes and it means it's not in DFU
 
What up Andy hahaha

And the only screen that shows up on my phone is the chord saying connect to itunes so I can't use the assistive touch bubble shit
