Help GS2 Power Button Doesnt Work

[th3r3n3g4d3]

Hello all, first post

My galaxy s2's 'power' button (on the right side) seems to have stopped working a few days ago. Everything else works fine, including the other buttons, which I find weird.

I managed without it for a couple of days, but unfortunately my phone ran out of batteries last night. I plugged it in, and had it in recharge mode until it was full, but now I have no way to start the phone. Is there any way to start the phone WITHOUT the power button?

I will look into the repair of my phone, but since everything is closed atm I really need to access my phone asap.

Would something like this be considered a defect under warranty? Wondering who i should contact regarding the repairs.

Thanks

Button failure is a defect and should be covered under warranty.
