How do I turn on my HTC Bolt if my power button will not work

[Android Central Question]

I'm not sure if my power button is stuck or if it I was just quit working altogether but my HTC Bolt will not turn on either way I have plugged in my phone to my computer via USB while holding the volume down key and this brings up the reboot menu which I can scroll up and down through but I have no way to select which option that I want to choose. Please help?

If you plug your phone in computer to charge it will be very slow , try connecting to wall with adapter and cable and let it charge 2 hours see what happens.

Welcome to Android Central! If pressing the Power button doesn't select anything in that menu, then it's certainly possible the Power button is faulty. You'd have to bring it to a repair shop for further diagnosis.
