Hello everyone, i've recently flashmodded a iPod mini 1st gen but it's stuck on the "plug into wall adapter" icon and doesn't respond to anything else. Some said to try different chargers/cable but no luck. I have read that if you put 9 volts on the C75 capacitor you can trick it into being a charger, but i can't find that capacitor anywhere on the board. does anybody know where it is or how can i skip this?

Try one of the larger apple power bricks that came with an iPad. They should say they are rated as 5v 2amps for a total of 10watts. They usually work for me.
