Re-wiring broken connector for data recovery
This stick has 5 PINS which do not follow normal USB stick convention. I need to resolder a 4 pin USB-A cable to the board and need to know which pins are VCC, GND, D+, and D-,.....I have buzzed out with a meter but come up with nothing except the middle pin pictured is GND ?? go figure...anyone know anything at all about this ? SANDISK will not release any pinouts or schematic
Update (05/27/26)
Photo with RED must be the 4 PIN USB A 2.0 connections.....unfortunately it is snapped off the board taking half the tracks with it by the looks. I am locating the same stick to recreate the tracks, connect the 4 x USB wires, and hopefully recover data !!
Thanks everyone for your help !
Es esta una buena pregunta?

2 new pictures should be up top - sorry best quality I can do at moment. with damaged pins removed, there is no other 4 pins, it was just a standard sandisk 64GB stick, I guess yeh it was USB 3.0.....but USB A anything only uses 4 pins so I'm stumped....I'm too scared to connect power to anything until I'm sure.....really need to know where the 5V input is .....sandisk have no info. you can see I pulled one of the pads but I can sort that easy. cheers

@russ1kimberley just solder your USB cable to the VIA's You just need it for as long as it takes you to recover the data.
