Anyone have any success stories on resetting their screen without the original charger cord?

I have the blank screen on my for it 5 after charging it from 0% to full charge, wearing for a few days to dead and recharging. I am using a replacement charger cord as I lost the original charger cord so I do not have a physical button of any kind to hit to try to reset it per other suggestions in this forum. Anyone have any success stories on resetting their screen without the original charger cord

You might be able to mimic the button push by removing power to the cable for the same amount of time as the button push.
The button push just cuts power to the Charge 5 for as long as you keep the button pushed in.
