Need for iPhone help.

[Matt52897]

Recently during a regular update, my Iphone 3gs turned off and would not turn on. I have tried everything to fix it but my power button no longer functions rendering putting the phone in dfu mode impossible (?). This morning I connected it to itunes on my mac and it read! But when i tried to click restore it disappeared and would no longer show up in the list.

My pc's and mac will not detect the iphone and I can not put it in dfu mode.

Is their a way to put the iphone in dfu mode or some how use a program that will detect the iphone and create a way for me to restore it.

Thanks in advance.

(I've already tried redsn0w, tinyumbrella, Dr.Fone and nothing can detect it or requires dfu mode.)

Out of 920 people, not one reply...I guess it's hopeless.

If you've tried all the methods that a search in Google suggests - it doesn't sound good.

All seem to require Red Sn0w or similar - e.g http://www.ijailbreak.com/how-to/enter-dfu-mode-broken-button-jailbreak-redsn0w-0-9-14b2-windows/

Sorry no-one can be more helpful

The issue is that I can not get the iphone to read with redsnow or iTunes, and Help?

Is there a way to put the iphone in dfu mode without a power button and it doesn't show up in things like redsnow or itunes?

Did you say that your sleep / wake button is broken? If so is that a physical problem with the button?
