You could always ask a friend or relative to secure your SQ boarding pass for you, and send it to you so you have it on your phone.
If you can pull that off, then instead of having 5 minutes to reach the SQ check-in counter, you'd have 45 minutes (ample time if the stars are aligned perfectly) to get to the gate.
That having been said, I would be shocked if anybody here actually endorses this plan.
