Trace lifted

I used the QSB and solder ran under the board. When trying to read the nand it gave me trouble and I touched the iron to it and it let the board come off the point, so I could solder it back trying to get a better connection. Got it to read the nand, but then after I wrote the ecc xell would not boot. So I was going to flash it back to stock and it would not read or write to the nand. So I pulled the QSB off and the trace pulled up. I wanted to know if I could solder to the resistor for the stby_clk to the end of the trace. The wire is lifted halfway off the trace. Should I cut to where it's not pulled up anymore and solder to the trace or solder to the hole where the trace ends. Picture 3. I have only been able to find one pic of that point's alternate and I think it was just someone soldered to the trace. Is there a alt under the board. I'm sure there is a post I just could not find it. Just wanted to ask before I done it and messed something else up.

at this point you may have overheated the board...

did you put any force on it when trying to pull up the qsb?

My solder iron is only 15 watts. I have not had any trouble soldering. All my other points were fine. The solder just ran under the QSB. Not force pulling the board back off just desoldered it and it can right off.
