So lets try this and see if it helps.

Hard Reset using buttons:

Press and hold the Camera + Volume Down + Power until the phone vibrates. Then release the Power key and keep pressing the Camera + Volume Down for a few seconds.

    What if you do not have a power button?

    I've been utilizing the phone for months without issue without a power button (the bracket it sits in is no longer in place and i cannot even hit the power button).

    Is there another way to hard reset?

    I did all of these steps and none of them fixed my Nokia Lumia 925. Nokia and Microsoft is nothing but crappy software and hardware. I am thinking of switching back to apple since I had iphone before and currently have macbook pro. I never had problem my iphone and macbook.
