I need to bypass a button to get in recovery mode

Texto:

Hello, I think it is better if I start from the begining:

My brother gave me a broken smartphone, I fixed it (here the question I asked: http://www.ifixit.com/Answers/View/120330/The+device+doesn%27t+recharge. ).

It was working well but I locked the phone. So now it ask me to insert email and password (I tried all emails with all possible password but them don't work).

I wanted to reset it through the PC but I can't. So the only possibility is to use the "normal" recovery mode. To get into it I have to use the power button.

Now the problem: I don't completely fixed the connector (that is used by the power button) because it required to solder very thin pins and I don't have the skills and the tools to do it. But now I need to use that button, so I thought "I know which pin brings the power button signal, so why don't bypass it". So I wont need to solder the thin pins. But the problem is that I don't know which voltage and amperage I should use. Any idea?

If you have others solutions it would be even better.

thank you!!!

P.S.:Sorry if my description is confused, but is hard to explain the situation normaly, a lot more in a language that isn't mine.

(In the other question there is the schematic of the connector too)
