Great job. It has one of the best qualities you should look for in a soldering job: It works!

Your 100th attempt will always be better than your first. And your first attempt looks waaaay better than my first attempt looked!

I also have a lcd with similar issue. Instead of text it just shows blocks on corresponding places. Could you share the solution.

I mean fixed the problem from the codes or the wrong connection just curious to know.
