Hacking [HELP] Is there a homebrew that allows me to power off/return to the home menu.

[MLGToad]

The home button and power button of my vita have stopped working so I have no way to return to the home menu or power off my vita without using vita shell. I am wondering if there is a homebrew that would allow me to do something like bring up a menu by pressing start and select that would allow me to do this as I would like to avoid having to return my vita.

Um what about a PS3/PS4 Controller PlayStation button?

I didn't realise I could connect a ps4 controller to my vita. I'll look into that now, thanks!

Yes as Vita has bluetooth built-in

how you going to turn on the vita if you have no power button?
also if you are in a game, who you going to exit without pressing the home button?

the only thing you can use is PS3 or PS4 controller, or you have to fix your buttons.

I don't know why this didn't occur to me until now. I tried and I can't turn it on via the power button. I hope I can do this via the charger otherwise I'm going to have to return it.

Edit: It turns on when plugged in but I'm still considering returning it as I only bought it 2~ weeks ago.
