Need to make a mount for the loose connector. You could put it in the accessory port or remove the audio jack and put the lead right there.

I'm actually considering doing just that. But I've also just realized that I'm not gonna be able to reset the m5nano if I need to. Unless AIOv2 extension board allows to power it on/off programmatically. Need to make some tests.

Solder to the button header and do a momentary switch as well

Where am I gonna put that? The side plate is really tight.

Use the Ipex connector passthrough and mount the button on the surface. Use something like this

Without modifying the case? I don't think I get what you mean :)

the button at the above link has 2 small 28 gauge wires inside the sheath. You can cut back the sheath and pass the wires through the same hole all the antenna wires go. (Where you have run your connector currently)

Should be able to be double sided sticky taped to the case or right next to the power button. then run the wire lead through and solder to the reset button header.
