How To Enter DFU Mode Broken Home Button
Step 1: The first thing you will need to do is download RedSn0w 0.9.14b2 or higher from theiJailbreak Downloads Section or from one of the direct links below.
Step 2: With RedSn0w downloaded you will need extract it and then launch it by double clicking onRedSn0w.exe and then you should see two buttons – Jailbreak and Extras. Click the Extras button, followed by the Even More button and finally the DFU IPSW button.
Step 3: Upon clicking the DFU IPSW button you will be presented with a window with some further information on the process. Read through this information and then click OK. You will now need to select a firmware that you can restore to without any hacks. This means a firmware that Apple is currently signing, which at the moment (July 5th, 2012) is the iOS 5.1.1 firmware.

Step 4: After you select a correct firmware RedSn0w will create the new custom firmware with a ENTER_DFU prefix. This new firmware will be saved to the same location as the original firmware that you selected.
For Example: If I selected the iOS 6 beta firmware for my new iPad, which is named iPad3,1_6.0_10A5316k_Restore.ipsw, the custom firmware that RedSn0w would create is ENTER_DFU_iPad3,1_6.0_10A5316k_Restore.ipsw.
Step 5: Now connect your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad to your computer via the USB cable and launch iTunes. Click on your iOS Device from the sidebar and then hold down the OPTION key on your keyboard and click the Restore button. Doing this will bring up a new window where you can select the custom ENTER_DFU firmware file. Do this now and your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad will begin being restored.
Step 6: When the process is complete your iOS device should be in DFU Mode (the screen should be completely black). You can now simply follow one of our guides on Jailbreaking with RedSn0w by clicking herehttp://idevicesnews.blogspot.in/2012/09/how-to-jailbreak-ios-511-for-iphone-4s.html.
