After replacing battery, iPod only stays on for a second?

I messed up the soldering and removed a solder pad. Following advice from iFixIt Thread Here, I used a short wire to connect the joint with a trace.

Here's how my iPod looks like now:

Now, when I connect the iPod to the computer, the Apple logo appears for ~1-2 seconds, before the screen blacks out, and the Apple logo appears again. This keeps happening as long as the iPod is plugged in.

Is this because of a bad solder job, or is there any way to fix this?

I already screwed it up quite bad, hope there is a solution that doesn't require any desoldering.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

When I press the "Home Button" during the startup process, it goes into Recovery mode and manages to stay on.

However, I pressed the power button, which turned it off, and now it doesn't turn on when connected to the cable... Any help?
