Hello I shorted this capacitor near the charging port to the metall backplate and now it wont charge, but it still turns on, what could be the problem here?

Maybe the fuse is blown
can you maybe send a picture of the fuse and its location
The metal bracket touching the cap would lead to a charging circuit goes to ground, likely charge fuse in red circled blow
Is it possible to just make a solder joint between those?
Yes and no. Fuse places there for reasons. You should check it prior to replace it
The fuse is good, then its the charging chip.
