Lead-free, silver solder and brush-on flux paste is your friend...don't use solder with flux already in it, that always results in a bad connection. Also, it sounds to me like your soldering iron does not have enough wattage...60w will get the job done, but 100-120 watts is much better, and allows you to get the job done quicker so as not to heat soak the batteries or other electronics.
