          Soldering back the chip can be hard sometimes. In fact got some trouble at the beginning to solder it correctly as there were too many tin on the central attachment of the chip on the motherboard. So first remove as much tin as you can from the center, and add more tin to the leads place, then with hot air, solder it back and it should work.

                                          Yes that's the point, with ch341a, you should read & save your locked firmware, post it here, and the community will repost a firmware without password. Download it and reprogram it. Then solder it back (so yeah you will need to remove the chip from motherboard before).
                                          Regards
