Sorry Ast007, I missed your post update. Your pictures look like your USB port has not been touched at all. As I said, the
Fix your USB port thread
has a lot of "before" and "after" pictures to show what a fixed port should look like. There are a lot of links right there in the first post.
For example,
this one
before...
...and after:
As you can see, a fixed USB port has a blob of extra solder around it to make it stronger.
If it's no longer charging at all, my suspicion is that the port has come off the PCB. It may still be hanging by the data pads but the shell has probably come off the ground pads. Trying to plug in a cable will very likely detach it altogether so please avoid doing that until you get it fixed properly.
There may still be a chance. Holding the port down tight while soldering it may do the trick. The chances of course depend on your specific circumstances. If are not comfortable with your soldering skills, I strongly recommend having it done by someone who is.
