Ok, this works and, as a general idea, it's quite OK. However, a few details made me suffer considering someone unexperienxed with soldering may watch this video: please do clean the tip of your soldering iron! A piece of (dry) cloth or even paper would go a long way. It would also be better to "turn" (roll) the wires before soldering them. And please use better (wider and more even) spacing among the soldered wires. Interesting trick with the lighter! Please don't misunderstand me: I'm not criticizing, just kindly suggesting. Ciao!

The soldering technique employed here leaves a lot to be desired? Dip the bare wire ends in some flux paste first and twist the loose strands together before tinning. This will make soldering them onto the pads on the USB plug so much neater and secure. Additionally use a better soldering iron with dedicated miniature PCB tips.

In my case I know the cable got broken inside and not the plugs, so tired bending it around and see which part is more likely has fault, I cutted the broken part off in the cable, I found a music cd disk, I reconnect the ends of the cutted four wires by twisting them into a string (about 1cm long pin after braiding the cutted wires., I insert the braided long “pin” into tiny plastic tube cutted (empties plastic tube of core of a pen), so the pin is insulated inside the pen-tube that’s about 3mm thick. So there are 4 pen-tubes insulating 4 pins, I taped the pen-tubes onto music Cd disk, and also taped the nearby length of the cable onto the cd disk, I need to cut a tiny plastic piece from a plastic bag to insulate the copper wired between the 2 out the 4 pen-tubes because they has to be taped all in one spot one on top the other. So the cable had been fixed albeit there is a music cd disk taped up in the middle the Lightning cable!

The time invested to strip the wires, solder back, cut yourself even is not worth it.
