Uh-oh! The mini-USB port just broke off of my oil pan. I tried soldering it back on, to no avail. Has this happened to anyone else, and is there anything I can do?

yep, lifted right off the board easy as could be... I might reinforce these on my other IMUs. In the mean time, I'm going to sleep on it before I consider a repair plan. Did you ever solve yours? I have no paste or a solder wick, but I have a rework station. I really should maybe get some paste and wick, I think, for this...

I broke mine, had a usb cabled plugged in then tripped over the cord ripping the connector off the board. No traces left.
Are there alternative pins where a FTDI or something can be connected? Can firmware be loaded through the telemetry port?
