as described i dont get either. i forced 5 volts onto pad 3 of dc in board connector and then hookup the charger i get 0.182amps wont turn on and i still get no s4 state.
when i got this board j7000 was ripped out and i had to restore ppdcin_g3h to get to this point.
Supposedly there was no liquid spill but i did notice a tiny bit of black spot on a test point near the dcin_g3h entry point to inrush limiter. Which is the area where i had to replace a diode and a transistor to get it to this point.
