Raimon,

I am pleased to hear you now have it working.
Yes, solder connections may be like that, particularly if the solder pad 
did not receive enough heat during the initial soldering.  No matter how 
good one's soldering skills are, it is always possible to be distracted 
and not to notice the point when the solder flows out onto the pad 
telling you that it is a good and complete connection.

73,
