Noob needing help.

Hi. I was desoldering some of the pp track pads on the back of my pi zero when i noticed that oneof the pads had lifted away from the board. How can i fix this

Which pad exactly. There is usually somewhere else you can solder to but it would involve scraping to reveal some traces. If it was PP1 or PP6 you can also just bypass that by soldering to one the GPIO pins for power or ground, or using a mirco usb plug instead. If it was one of the data pins you'll need to find a new trace to solder to or use a USB OTG cable instead of soldering.

Maybe someone else can help more by telling you exactly where else you can solder too.

Check this topic, someone had similar issues too:

It doesn't really look bad, just have to be SUPER CAREFUL when you are soldering not to leave your iron on anything for longer than it takes to melt the solder. If you feel like its going to fall off then I'd suggest going to the hobby store and buy some apoxy or contact cement with a very fine tip.
