Pi Zero no power indication

Hey guys!
I am currently building my Gameboy Zero with a SAIO V 0.6C and i ran into a problem, while doing a test run.
I have tested the SAIO and the Pi Zero individually and both worked fine. I soldered it on using the tutorial and it seems like something went wrong. The Leds on the SAIO power up, but the USB hub is not, therefore i believe that is the reason, why the Pi Zero is not indicating that it is on. Can you see mistakes i did in the provided pictures? I tried soldering the ground similar to another guide, but that did not fix my problem.

Try putting the SD into the Pi itself if it will fit and see if it boots. If it does, then it's the SD pads that need a little rework
