AC Question

Okay so my phone died and I just want to see if there is a way to turn my phone on without my power button because it doesn't work anymore. It is jammed, so is it possible to turn my phone on without the power button?

Hello. To boot the Galaxy S3 without a power button, you plug the phone into a power source via usb or into a laptop.
Pull the battery. Hold down the volume down button and the home key while putting in the battery. This will load Download mode. You can use volume down to reboot after that. Let me know if you have any more questions.
