After soldering Pinheader "Could not detect Flash controller"

I resoldered the points now some more and still nothing.

I did not attach the jtag wires yet. There are just the nand wires there.

Are there anywhere points on the board on which I can measure if the seven nandpoints are soldered OK?
Could you post some pictures of your install?
 
Here are the solderpoints for the "upper" nand (2 wires)







Here are the solderpoints for the "lower" nand (5 wires)





When I put the pin wires on the pins and measure from the downside of the board to the nandxconnector i get a reading. So the connection must be OK but why does it say flash controller not found

Test for cross reading between the 5 NAND points from below ...

There should be no cross talking between the 5 points at all ..

I can't tell anything from these photos, all I can see is some shadow ... If there's excess soldering then remove it and tidy it.
 
Made the pics a bit brighter. Maybe it helps a bit.





I dont know why but Firefox opens two tabs for each pic. The one with the big pic is the right one. Here you can zoom in a bit.

If there is someone 50-70 km north-west from Hannover/Germany who can help a bit. PM me.

Thanks

Just had a look at your pics youve posted, might be wrong but have you knocked off the resistor C1D7 infront of pin 5?

The 1st picture on the left looks better now and I see you have removed everything now right?

I'd advice you just to solder the wires directly to the board. These points are not going to take too much of soldering and de-soldering and pin headers install and removal.
