Hello,

Start here:

If you forgot the passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled

However, it the Home button is really broken, you'll need to have that repaired, before anything else:

iPhone Repair

If your computer doesn't recognize your iPhone, iPad, or iPod

Good luck.
