Even though your home button is gone, you should be able to use some non-metal object to aid in "pushing" the home button. Something like a pencil eraser should work fine.
I have an S3, and that has happen to me. When the screen was just black, I restarted the phone. That helped for a few minutes, but I knew a rogue app was actually causing this issue. Once I deleted that app, and restarted the phone, the problem was solved. IF this could be related to your issue, you can uninstall the trouble app(s) from the app store online via your computer or even from another late model android phone under the same gmail account.
I have also been unable to actually see the screen (it appeared to be black) because I was in direct sunlight. In that case, you have to just do the functions even though you don't see the information. Depending on how you've set the phone security, you may be able to press the side button to activate the "unlock" screen, and then just swipe down to access slide-down menu. Then, adjust the brightness as necessary.

While in browser, open settings (bottom left button) and change display setting. The s3 has separate display settings for browser and general phone. Hope this helps.
SOURCE: Need to 'hard reset' my Samsung Galaxy Europa
I attempted the above in order to hard reset my Europa i5500. However, it didn't work, and instead just went back to the "enter address/password" screen. I've attempted to connect to Kies, but to no avail, Kies doesn't register that the product is plugged in. I can get the phone onto download mode and emergency download mode, however neither are helping me much. Any suggestions?
