Iphone turned off and can't turn it back on?

My iphone 4s has been working perfectly however it has just turned off and will not turn back on. I can't hold down the home and power button together because the power button is broken and I have been using assistive touch:/ What do I do?! I've tried plugging it into the wall and charging it and plugging it into my laptop!

I had an unresponsive start button on the bottom. I check around online and it was suggested that to try and reactivate that bottom button you take the charging cable and plug it into the slot on the bottom, then gently, very gently push down on the that cable connector right in front of where it attaches to the wire.

Push down a few times, you will be raising the button contact back up into the proper position. See if it works, if not push a little harder on the connector to try to push the button up again. Give it few tries, it did work on mine.

You have to replace the phone.
