0x1000000 — SMC: silent sensor

SMC “BSC failure” panic: the system management controller (built into the SoC) periodically waits for a response from each mandatory sensor; this code was obtained in the lab when the path between the microphone component on the USB flex, the filter and the logic board PMU is interrupted. With no response, it forces a restart, which repeats roughly every 3 minutes (≈180 s) as long as the sensor stays silent.

First check

First replace the charging port flex with a known-good part; if the panic persists, diode mode on the USB connector and the logic board filter (OL = damage), bridging possible if the pads are intact.
