Update:

I soldered a new board. This time the soldering process itself went much smoother!

The new board is working as intended. It wakes itself up and starts up in the correct bootmode! So at the very least it wasn't a design flaw, but a flaw in my hot air soldering skills!

Hi PCBEE,

unfortunately I'm unable to contact you via private message (probably because I'm a new user).

I'm interested in your project and would be happy to receive more information, e.g. project specs and PCB-layout.

Thank you in advance.
