I re-solder the F1 fuse back.. This allows the device to sense the USB connection..
after resoldering F1, when I put the device into DFU mode (press user button and plug in usb power) I was able to see the dfu interface on usb (id 0456)..
Then used the firmware and dfu-util to flash the latest firmware
sudo dfu-util -a firmware.dfu -D pluto.dfu
and the device started back to working as normal....

I will document my progress here, someone else can face the same issue...
I connected a serial/USB converter to RX and TX pins on the JTAG port (be carefull it is 1V8 , you may want to use a level shifter)..
I used 3V3 USB serial converter (worse case to loose the whole device...)
Now I have the console.... I will investigate why I don't see any action on the USB port side

HI,
Good catch... I had the same problem.. And I started debugging.. I was seeing short circuit in powe rlines (even in USB input)...
I thought the voltage selector U8 or U9 is the reason.. I didn't want to desolder them, because they were very tiny to resolder back.
I never thought that it can be the L7.
Desoldered U8 and U9 didn't give me a solution but then I was sure that it is L7.... Just in your photos it was shortcircuited internally. I just placed wires instead of the coil L7, and carried the USB power from P2 pin 1 (Data USB power pin) to D3 (or shorted L7 power lines). Also removed the F1 fuse and D2.
What does all this mean... No voltage selection for data USB and/or Power USB plug.. Which means I cannot power USB ethernet or similar OTG devices.
Now the device has LEDs back.... Checked the voltage test points and all seems fine. But LED1 is blinking twice every seconds and I cannot have the USB drive present on PC side.. even IIO_INFO command cannot find any device...
Anybody with any ideas ?
Thanks
