bad power button + forgotten pattern = Bricked Phone???

So i basically want to either remove the pattern or do a factory reset but the phone is not rooted and the power button does not work. i get to the original recovery but i can't select anything because of the broken button. ADB works though. Can anyone help???

If you flash Glitch kernel i think it has capcasive button selection
Edit:: Misread sorry, you can flash through Odin and it will clear user info. If that didn't work, adb dump and Master clear in Odin

No recovery Mode

Anyone know how to get into recovery mode, seems there's no way to get in there. Tried vol-up Home & power button but nothing works.

Fore Recovery mode Use
C:\Program Files (x86)\Samsung\Kies\External\FirmwareUpdate\GT-I8190\adb-windows.exe
command "adb-windows reboot recovery"
/Antte

Can you explain more details.
No adb-windows.exe this directory.
And what we do?
Read the build file damn.. we have full access to recovery .. on a powered on phone... forget the recovery ..
# Enable RecoverySystem to emit "factory-reset" reset string
# instead of "recovery" when doing a factory reset. This is
# useful when implementing factory reset without the entire
# recovery framework.
ro.factoryresetwithoutrecovery=true
Sry my harsh words
Recomend wiping phone before flashing anything to avoid errors , fc and bootloops from the settings meny.. there is NO button combination

If you do the adb reboot recovery just once you should be able to boot into recovery by holding Power + Menu buttons.
Are you sure?
Well I'm not a 100% if that's what you mean.

Another method
1. Up the new rom that is rooted by odin. That's mean your phone has rooted
2. You install quick boot app from the market play. Then open quick boot and hit recovery
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
yeah, it also works with rom toolbox (-> rebooter -> reboot in recovery) and rom manager (-> reboot in recovery).

You need ROOT

(I tried and it works) ClockWorkMod recovery
i9000 (in short: Vol UP + HOME + power ON
i9000)
i think the only possible way is to flash a stock samsung firmeware thru odin.

Stuck in fastboot!

After using the lg update tool to update to ics,then rooting the phone it became stuck in fastboot no matter what I've tried googled etc...it will never shut off,just reboots with silver lg,don't get me wrong it looks better than the stock lg logo but its getting a bit annoying

Did you try to boot in to recovery then factory reset? To get to recovery press volume down + power button. That grey logo is also the new image for the boot loader you may have installed.

Yes, still stuck

Did you make a back up after rooting? If not you may have to start over. Flash v30b again. Which recovery did you use. U needed to use the ICS boot loader and the GB recovery. ICS recovey is for su760 port.

Mine is the same way. I just hold down the power button till it shuts off.

What kernel are you using
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium
Your phone bootloader locked or unlocked? It is convenient for locked bootloaders as there is xzdualrecovery apk. Once I installed the dual recovery apk and click on reboot recovery of the app, it will reboot and straightaway goes into the cwm without having to press the volume key like hell.
