Removed R1204 resistor, Impact?

Hi! I with all of my stupidity i read online articles mentioning about the possibility of hardware icloud bypass for a1432 ipad mini 1 by removing resistor r1204. Without knowing how it works i follow the instruction blindly and ofc it will not works

But the ipad mini still turning on without indication of impact other than video not working (microphone? Camera working fine). Do u guys know what i removed and how it may impact my device? ( i think i damaged the component beside and above it, circled blue in the picture)

thank you, any answer will be really appreciated

Last time i checked i thought this icloud removal method will only work for the ipad mini 4G not wifi models but i could be mistaken. However, if you damaged R0941 which right next to R1204 then it can give you issues because it’s linked to rear camera and on the other side C0961 and 62 are linked with the front camera , and the one above R0720 looks like its some kind of CODEC for speaker/amp. I know im not giving you a solution here but perhaps with this information and maybe some little research it might lead you on the right path. Good luck.
