so i bought this iPhone from a kid at my school and it still has a password on it and the power/sleep button is broke. I need a way to get the passcode off the iPhone so i can use it. He doesnt know it because he forgot it (apparently) but regardless of how he got it, anybody know how to get this passcode off without a power/sleep button?

I'm not an iPhone expert but I think that restoring the device to factory settings in iTunes would work.

probably should have mentioned that it wont let me restore unless i enter the passcode...

Oh, well then. I would think that you will have a hard time with this because you won't be able to put the device in DFU mode like you normally would. I don't know if there's an alternate way to put the device into recovery but if you can find one try it.

so its impossible?
depending on the firmware if it is compatible with blackra1n you can do it because it throws it into DFU mode for you but either than that you can open the phone and try and fix it. other than that pretty much impossible.
