If you think otherwise, I'm willing to give it a try for ya I've spent more and gotten less more than I'd like to admit - LOL
The problem is that I'm not sure, as I've never seen a dummy Imagio, but I've heard reports of people successfully salvaging buttons for other phones.

But now that you mentioned it, there were little plastic discs in between the button sensors and the physical buttons... If the problem is simply that one of them slipped off, you may not even need replacement parts, you can just open it up and re-seat it, and maybe add a dab of glue so it stays in place.
