How to turn on iPhone without lock button?
My lock/power button broke. I have Assistive Touch and know how to turn it off, but don't know how to turn it back on other than plugging it into the charger. If i'm at school and need to turn my phone off and then turn it back on, I need a different way to turn it back on without charging it.
You can use Assistive Touch (Settings > Accessibility) to lock and turn off the phone.
But really, you should take it into an Apple store, so they can deal with the underlying problem of your broken button!
You turn on Assistive Touch the way to turned it off.
You can turn it on using the home button.
If you jailbreak it, an app called 'Activator' lets you modify shortcuts (I think one of them is for turning off the phone).

- Is it possible to replace the home button and the lock screen button on a iPhone? I've had my iPhone for about 2 months now, and the buttons are starting not to work. Besides the buttons my iPhone is in perfect condition. My phone carrier is straight talk, from Walmart. They don't offer insurance or a warranty or anything like that. So I was wondering if it was possible to replace these buttons?
