How to fix a disabled iPhone 5 with broken home button?
I've beeing searching for two days online for trying to fix this problem. I have a disabled iPhone 5 (iOS 7) with a broken Power Button, I want to restore it to its factory defaults but it isn't working.
1) I can't put the iPhone into recovery mode since the power button is broken.
2) Once I plug that iPhone on my MacBook, iTunes asks for trust confirmation from my side althgouh the iPhone is disabled and I can't access it to trust that computer.
3) I tried to multiple solutions but they didn't didn't work; I even tried to reset my iPhone using "Accessibility Options" but it didn't work.
What can I do?
Free phone support is 90 days. Yes they will charge you to call. No, they will NOT charge you to take it to the genius bar. If it's within 1 year, they will replace it if it's covered.
There are no magic words that will get you past the fact that it's physically broken. Make an appointment and make the trip to the genius bar.

How to reset my iphone 4 with broken home button and forgotten passcode
Ok ok. I found an old iPhone 4 that used to be my older sister's when she had her phone in the shop. I was planning on using it until i could figure out what to do with my broken 5s. The only problem is that my sister forgot the passcode and i can't set it to factory settings without the home button which happens to be broken. Any suggestions?
again, i dont know the password and i couldnt get into the phone in the first place. i thought of setting it to factory settings to reset the whole thing and take the passcode off but you need a working home button for that to work. i already have assistive touch on it from when my sister used it but that doesnt help when trying to put it in recovery mode. sorry if i wasnt clear before i kind of disabled it to the point where it says connect to itunes to unlock it but it wouldnt work because ive never used this phone before and never synced it to this computer so i was freaking out a bit... :\

How to Reset iPhone with Broken Power Button
Hello
Just recently I've had the problem with my phone, it had a non-responsive black screen and it would not turn back on
If you have this same issue, please follow these steps;
1) Connect your iPhone to iTunes
2) Enable backup of your phone via iCloud
3) Restore your iPhone to the latest backup that you can see, it would be soon; due to the backup being directly to your iCloud wirelessly
I'm not 100% sure if it will fix your issues as well, but it worked for me. Good Luck!There's no way to reset the iPhone without the power button.

Restoring disabled iPod with broken power button
My daughter forgot her passcode and I need to wipe/restore her disabled iPod. But the power button is broken. How do I do this?
One suggestion:
I found some similar discussions where lllaass recommends using RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode. I downloaded RecBoot, but couldn't get it to work because "iTunesMobileDevice.DLL is missing". In fact, the instructions for RecBoot say "The program requires LibUSB utility whos setup is included in the zip package", only ... no such utility was included in the zip package. How do I get RecBoot to work?
