Solder Pads tracks have come off Galaxy 3 during repair any way to fix

Hi Gentleman

I have been repairing for quite some time but my solder skills are average

During removal of a charger port two solders pads came off

Not sure why maybe too much heat

I have researched it but it is very confusing and conflicting

What is the easiest way to replace the missing tracks/pads as they are very small but need to fix them otherwise board is rubbish

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

@tabletrepairsoz there is really no easy fix for this. you will have to post some images of your damaged board as well as the damage itself. That way we can see what you see. Adding images to an existing question

Sometimes the pad can be rebuild, other times you will have to apply jumpers to the closest component after the solder pads. If you are unsure about your abilities to solder I recommend that you send the board to someone who specializes in microsoldering.
