  Oh, that's awesome!

  Is this the one? Or am I getting ahead of myself? 😛

  I think I can safely say this is the tiniest bit of soldering I've ever done!
  All glued up now, and still works when I plug it back in.

  I'm chuffed to bits. Many thanks again for the help Gordon!

  Now I will be able to make my IR remote control do more than just control the media buttons on my PC :-)

  Little jumper lead I added is highlighted in yellow. 🙈

  I DID IT!

  There was a tiny nub left under the lifted pad that I anchored a tiny wire to using solder paste, and then the bit of flappy trace on the other side of the pad was just able to be soldered to, it looks like a mess but I can happily say I managed to upload the firmware and run your example code!

  When I get to glueing it all down (yep, gonna get the UV-cure resin out!) I'll send a picture for fun so you can see just how much I butchered my lovely little shim! 😭 haha

  Well, something I did while jostling it about did the trick - although I lifted the pad on the middle pin! Hopefully it's salvageable, will try my best to fix the trace!

  Bugger, never mind! 😆

  OK, I'll stick the fat soldering tip on and give it a try!

  Thanks for getting back to me so fast! I'll post up my results.

  (I should mention that the short testing produced the same results on the other side of the board)
