I tried to desolder through I had IC that I wanted to replace but failed. And now I came here to learn what's the correct way for doing this. I tried to use soldering wick but the capillary force kept solder in the hole. With soldering wick I only managed to remove the part of solder that was outside the hole. But the solder that was inside the hole never got out. And of course when I moved on to next pin the solder in previous hole hardened again so no matter how many times I did all the pins there was still solder in holes.
Question 1: what would have been correct way of desoldering this IC?
Question 2: I tried to pull the IC with pliers while heating the pins from the other side but it did not help either. And as a result, I now have some pins stuck in hole together with solder that came off from IC when I pulled it. what would be correct way to remove these?
Also attached here the image of IC (taken before desoldering attempt)
