How do I fix this? (Battery Connector problem)

Hello,

The (i heard) typical Battery Connector Problem hit me. When I tried to disconnect the battery the pads and the connector got ripped of. Luckily one Data Pad and the 12V plane are still intact, but the Ground pads arent there anymore and the teo other data pins are gone too. The Connector os still intact. I wonder now what the best solution is.

I read that the best solution would be to glue the connector down, solder a wire from the date pins to where they lead before and solder the 12V pins down. But whats with the ground pins, where do I connect those? There are only two vias, do you think that they are connected with the plane where the “J6002” is written on?

Or whats the best way to deal with the problem? I havent done a lot of microsoldering before but i have pretty good equipment and I think I will manage the repair. If its possible i would prefere to let the board in the case to prevent any risk while getting it out.

Well, I did manage the repair. I glued the connector on, did all the jumper-wiring, and it WORKED! And then it did stop…

I assume thet the little metal piece that secures the plugged in part (i added it after testing) shorted the battery, and now its not turning on anymore, even wirhout the battery. No lights, no signal, just a bit spool-hissing. Does anyone have an idea what to do? Are the fuses popped or something? But why is there this sound when there is no power? And how do I check if there is power?
