    I have an odd problem...

    I have an Iphone 4, jailbroken with RedSnow, and it has a broken lock button.

    So my Iphone 4 is stuck in a boot loop. Now I would normally just put it in DFU mode and then reset it with RedSnow, but I can't put it in DFU mode because the lock button is broken.

    I have disconnected the battery for more than 20 minutes, no luck.

    I have let the battery drain to nothing, no luck.

    My computer and Itunes both will not read it.

    So basically is there anything that anyone knows I can do?

    If you had a spare 4, you could just swap boards and get it working that way.

    Short of replacing the button or swapping logic boards to get it back running there is likely nothing you can do.

    Thanks, that is all I was thinking I could actually do... But I was curious if anyone had any other solutions... Thank you.
