Hello guys, I was able to "fix" it. You need to remove back covers, unscrew all 5 screws, disconnect one flex cable (as shown in that video), then you need to pull up the main board - but be careful not to damage any other cables. After the MB is lifted, you can fiddle with the power button, you can push it from inside and then back in...try it a few times and then just put everything back. It worked for me like a charm:). I think it is a better way than throwing your phone on the ground (as someone suggested).
