Hi. Newbie here. Is there any way to power on a K790a without using the power button? My battery ran out the other day - phone shut off - now I can't turn it back on... my power button seems to be broken. I've dropped it a couple times and now the power button doesn't stick out quite as far as it used to. I've held it down for as long as a minute, tried holding it while inserting the battery, tried holding it while plugging power adapter in... nothing. My phone's alarm clock still goes off every morning, my screen still works when I plug the phone in, and I can access the internal memory via usb, so I know that much of the phone works. Any tips?
Thanks in advance.

Try plugging it on a charger or USB cable (don't know if this will work)

Tried plugging it in to no avail. Guess I'll utilize my SquareTrade warranty. Thanks guys.

Is there by any chance a Red Light flashing near the Infra-red?
