Hi. I think that's the same that happened with another device i did
bass rework for. The large shield is too easy to tilt a bit and it can
touch the big capacitors shorting something to ground.

Nice pals at work helped me to desolder that inductor (with hot air
gun) and they found another that was similar enough (see the PMU
datasheet), and that revived the device.

You can find BOM, component placement etc at

Good luck!
