How's that scroll wheel reflow holding up for you? I reflowed all the larger solder joints on the pcb (sockets, chips, through ports, etc) and the disconnect issue remained for me - but i didn't resolder the wheel senser wires. It happens most when first resuming the computer and seems to lessen as the mouse warms up. It grandly dislikes being picked up off the mouse pad during that warmup period.
Worked fine for a month, then started showing a few disconnects here and there, and then finally completely flipping out and disconnecting every few seconds. I took it apart and redid the wiring and it was fine again.
Month later it happened again and I took it apart, looked carefully at it, and everything seemed fine so I just put it back together and it worked fine again.
Frankly it was a little strange that the simple act of disassembling it and reassembling it somehow "fixed" it again.
Third time now, I was expecting this, I just took the wires and wiggled them a little bit and they're fine again. I have no idea why this temporarily works. The solder connections are fine and feel stiff, there's no breakage or anything.
For the record, the original wiring and soldering seemed to be completely fine too.
Maybe I'm just bad at soldering, but that doesn't explain the original wiring which was perfectly fine too.
Maybe some part in the mouse is building up a charge and simply touching the components dissipates it, who knows. Whatever the case it's not a software problem, it's a proven physical defect somewhere in the mouse, because physically tinkering with it solves it, at least temporarily.
