remove caps and trace 5v_usb to 5v_ext. (those lines meet with 2 huge capacitors near each each other)
EDIT: NEvermind. It's :censored:ed. Trying to charge through ext I noticed the PMIC gets really hot. Replacing it is beyond my tools and capabilities. Into the bin it goes. Original reply below but kinda pointless now.
Did you by any chance try popping in a different known good battery
Ok so I was on aliexpress looking at other stuff and stumbled over thishttps://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001949179200.htmlHas anyone here tried ordering replacement chips from aliexpress? Horror stories / warnings? I'm guessing i'm missing something.I don't have a hot air station so I can't replace it anyways, but that doesn't strike me as super expensive (assuming it's legitimate). Definitely something to consider
