    Suspecting CPU throttling due to some sensor detection failure. Is the trackpad connected? If not, do connect it and test again. There are sensors inside the trackpad.

      I will check that tomorrow, although this board should present an external image at least even bare board as far as I remember..
      In the meantime I tested the board with a external USB.. sadly no activity on LED indicator.. on other boards there's blink but on bad board no.

        Ok here is a quick breakdown what I concluded:
        I put the board in the housing to check for vcore voltage and it didn't drop to 0.6v it dropped from 1v to 0.92v.. I kept the board on inside its housing and it actually gave Apple logo after 10 minutes and stayed there..

        I shut down the computer and put an obstacle on the alt "option" key to keep it pressed to see if it goes to boot select menu and it actually did.. I plugged in my USB drive and it freeze for a bit then recognized it and started booting.. this process alone took like 30 minutes..
        After it booted in the first it says something about reset password (and it said there was no volume weirdly) so I restarted the whole thing and in the second attempt, of course.. I meet with old best friend of mine: "CRITICAL UPDATE"..

        I thought I use my data transfer device to see if it recognizes the internal ssd.. and sadly nothing is coming up..

        The SSD might be fried but most likely this is a bad T1 case; I can replace it but since my test board also got damaged by the housing before, I'm not getting into this one...
