Has anyone had an issue where the PADs for the oscillator came off of the PCB?

On two of the 20 units I did the 16Mhz/1.2K mods on, two out of the four pads for the oscillator came off with the SMD??.....


So two casualties out of the 20..... Sad lol

Anyone had this happen to them, and has ANYONE been able to get them to work again with replacing the pads? I can upload pics shortly if anyone needs or wants to see it... This happen to one of the older units and one of the newest versions of the USB miners.

Thanks in advance!!

from where are you?
i have a pcb, but need to solder new asic and new silabs chip.
if you near to me (austria) i could solder your silabs and you asic into my pcb and you have a working erupter again.
