Hello,
I just received a custom board assembled from JLCPCB. However, I am having some difficulty with a 3.3V regulator.
Its a little ESP32 board with some I2S and GPS peripherals.
The first board I actually fired up had a short between 3.3V and ground. After spending an afternoon taking off components and cutting traces, I discovered that there was a short in hole for the mems microphone and the 3.3V pour. On a fresh board I've cut that connection and now I can program the board with my programmer (esp-prog) and power 3.3V directly from that.
However, when I plug in a 1s lipo, no power comes out of the 3.3V regulator. When I plug in USB I only get 0.5v.Here are my schematic and top layer:
And a link for the pesky part:

VBUS (which is VUSB) line on the schematic...
Any tips on how to diagnose and repair? Should I just ship a different component from digikey, or is likely there is a problem with the PCB itself?
