After you have successfully soldered the electric pins of the USB-jack, make sure to also solder the metal legs on the side, as they will give stability to the jack.

Do **not** plug in a USB-cabel without soldering the metal legs on the side of the USB-jack! You will most likely rip off the USB-jack when unplugging the USB-cable!

Before flashing make sure you have **mechanically** soldered the USB-jacks to the board, only soldering in the electric parts will result in you ripping of the USB-jack when unplugging the USB-cable!
