i put bigs gobs of solder on the pads and heated them so it flowed in and, then put hot glue on top so that screwing the case back on would pressure them into place like a shock absorber. dunno if it will work but it works now since i just made it (hasn't broken yet). i like to think of it as invincible ! i'm better at fixing audio jacks from that state of mind where i transcribed a course including it to this list a couple years or so back
