How do I boot my iPhone with a tethered jailbreak?

Once you have jailbroken your iPhone 4 or iPhone 3GS MC model with redsn0w you must boot the device tethered for Cydia to work and the device to operate in a jailbroken state. To boot your iPhone tethered follow these steps:

1. Plug your iPhone into your computer.
2. Turn off the iPhone.
3. Follow these instructions to put the iPhone in DFU mode.
4. Run the redsn0w program on your computer.
5. Navigate to Extras and select Just Boot.
6. Follow the on-screen instructions and your iPhone will boot jailbroken.

Hello,
Could someone please tell me what the status of my iPhone3 is ? Following an incomplete jailbreak, where the tutorial told me to hold the power button and the home button down simultaneously (which I couldn't do, because the power button is damaged), my phone now keeps asking for a sim on the homescreen, over the background picture of a USB cable disconnected from an iTunes bubble, the unlock slide says "slide for emergency" and it only takes me to a dial available for emergency calls and when i try to connect it to iTunes via USB, nothing happens except for a short beep from the phone. Itunes does not recognize the phone.

What I'd like to know is: if I were to replace the broken power button, would I be able to reset to factory settings and make the phone usable again ? And could I attempt another jailbreak ?
Thanks.
