I figured that the on/off reset and usb boot pads were unused spots for momentary switches. I'm not sure how to conduct a jailbreak from it in the first place, however.

Anyway. I removed the solder mask with a mechanical eraser (like the kind drafters use) . It worked fine. However, the resulting point of contact is FAR too small to solder anything onto it, microscope or not.

It must be even smaller than the width of 30 guage wire. Looks like that was the contact point for the solder pad but there is absolutely no way I'm getting anything soldered onto it with any reasonable expectation of accuracy without creating a solder bridge to ground on all the exposed copper around it.

So I'm back to square one. Looks like my only solution now is to find that elusive TX series resistor.

Thanks,

Dan
