Update:
I found out that i've soldered the leds opposite so i fixed it like it alone took 2 hrs in desoldering and soldering
Then after that I tested it with test code and leds worked although I also tested out a copper pad of led no 2
Then after fixing all these problems i screwed the case with the pcb and then the firmware didn't worked properly so had to make it work also, now after all these it's finally working fine and every function is working
