Ios 6 install problem

Right basically got myself into a bit of a pickle. My power button stopped working a few days ago and so using any dfu methods is impossible as far as i can see.

Since then i tried to update to the new ios beta , and because i like to rush ahead and do things. I didnt realise you needed the dev activated device stuff.
stupid eh?

I have install ios6 but t gets to a screen were it says the device is not activated it as to be on the dev program . The same message appears on itunes when i plug it in, with no other options available except "eject". Since i was sort of stuck i decide to try a site offering to activate my udid to work with dev program . But that doesnt seem to have solvedanything i still run into the same problems .

I believe my iphone was in warranty but have i void it now. What are the apple store people likely to say/charge/do Or does anyone have any suggestions as a way out of this hole

Thanks

I thought about that but wouldnt that void waranty with apple and so spoil the chance of a replacment . Ive seen that many get replacements when the power button is stuck.

I guess i could see what apple say and then if they say ihave to pay for a replacment . Take it to be repairedand decide which is worth it

 

I registered it on a site for like $9 not the $99 package from apple . How can i restart my phone though its basically stuck

 

Ive no idea if its legitimate . Is having a third party activate my udid for $9 legit ?

Nope when i have the phone in itunes it says iphoneon the side . When i click that it trys t activate but then just displays an error saying it needs to be a developer activated device and theres no options given

 

Double useless

 

Ahh ha . Nightmare. So my warranty is void in which case doesnt really matter what i do just find the cheapest fix for the phone

 

So if i took it to an apple store thy might say they can replace it even though theres a non legit, half installed, non activated version of ios 6 on it ??
