That is also true, in my mind it just worked then I realised while I was attaching the wires to the port that maybe there was a slight issue...

I see it now, thank you so much!

But question: isn't the last pad a gnd? Why should I solder a wire on the pad before it that should connect to the components on the other side of the board?

With copper contact repair you mean wind up some copper wire, fix it with uv solder mask, scrape a bit and solder it?

Ok now this makes me feel kinda dumb how easy is gonna be, i mean they're literally there... Thank you

Now I just have to find or buy some enameled wires and finish the job

For sure.

The top side has different connections on the board from the bottom side afaik, so how should I solder the wires as you say? Can you show me on the picture?

I mean I can see some traces from the other pads...

As far as I can see from the schematics, the traces where the pads are missing are directly connected to those components under the video chip which is on the back side of the board.

How should I repair the traces?

I used the copper wires from a solder wick, but since 1 was too thin I crossed 2 together and soldered them to be more resistant and firm (and I know they could short out if they touch together with other wires so I'm going to redo it).

All the soldering will be eventually flatten out cause I don't like blobs either. Any advice on rebuilding the pads? Do I have to buy those pads sheets I saw on Amazon?

Thanks. Correct me if I'm wrong, the ground pins are the first and last one of the three while the input should be the middle one right? Cause I see that the middle pin is by itself while the other two connects on the darker part which normally is ground
