If any of the physical buttons of your device do not work, your device will require repair.

The physical buttons must be used to trigger a variety of actions - such as a forced-restart, DFU Recovery and acknowledgement of purchases. If you are unable to trigger these actions, it is only a matter of time before you encounter a situation from which you cannot recover.
