It may work completley fine without it if its a filter cap, or you can try bridging the pads. Without a schematic or the cap that you lost theres no way to tell other than asking someone else to test the cap on their board
i say nay to use it without it and yay to asking somebody else to test theirs
From what i can find, thats a filter cap for VSVR, power supply from 3.3v to 5v it could run with out it. or VCC in filter cap. there is no data sheet on this chip as its an internal nintendo chip but one similar. stability well we dont know either way. The closest claimed chip is the "Rohm M92T36"
Just as dangerous to an unskilled hand as soldering to the cap its self. To a skilled hand soldering to the cap is much easier then scraping the trace. Also since your waiting for cpu reset, the closets joint to the reset pin is going to be the most accurate.
Well I've chucked ample warning in every thread about the install
I'm telling ya tiny solder guy is gonna make a killing. And with the SwitchME mod entering production soon I'm afraid we may see a lot more threads popping up!
Well I've chucked ample warning in every thread about the install
Fair warning is good, and its intelligent this mod is not easy for the unskilled with out the right tools. I have to say, if you knocked that cap off, your iron was too hot. But thats just my opinion and it comes from years of experience in soldering and of course i'd like to say at this point after 14 years of doing this stuff as a day job I'm at least skilled. Don't have to call my self a "pro" but i can do the job, properly and well.
The “10,000 hour rule” – enshrined in Gladwell’s bestselling 2008 book Outliers – holds that mastery in any field can be achieved with 10 years or 10,000 hours of practice.
If the stars align I will help you out - I need free time and an acquaintances fluke. but if its a filter cap, I probably cant help you - I cant understand the difference between a filter cap and a ferrite bead. filters act like fuses in my brain, like how you can revive an ipad pro by running wire in place of filters (I do have the appropriate ferrite beads now, but I still don't fully understand 'noise'")
I don't mind, call me whatever you want! when I was living with my parents I thought my name was shithead and get wood (firewood, we lived in the country)

It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem. -

the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze -

but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in

There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.

But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".

Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.

Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need -
