I have a problem with my iphone 4s where the lock button is broken and i need to put into dfu mode to reset it, it is in a boot loop due to a jailbreak going wrong, also the phone is out of warranty.

Is it possible to put it into dfu mode without a lock button? any solutions and ill rep you

Unfortunately there is no way(at least that I know of) to get into DFU without a working power button.

It happens every once in a while at work and I just plug a new power flex into the board to use temporarily but if you don't have the parts just lying around that might not be as feasible.

You can google repair shops near you and see if they can fix it for you or just restore it for you. Another option is to order the part yourself and do what I said above.

Got any other questions just let me know.

Not sure if this will work but, get it to turn off somehow, or let the battery die.
Then hold the home button, plug it into your comp while holding the home button.
And keep holding the home button when it boots.

Not sure if it will still put it in recovery mode and if you can restore it from there.
