Well to start the chip that you cut in half needs to be completely removed. This could be causing a short.

If you're using a phone camera can I suggest that you place it on top of a glass or some other kind of solid structure? I t makes the focus much easier to control

It looks like the relocations are good as far as I can see so Im not sure. The edges might need some more sanding. Its also possible applying power with the cut chip previously did lasting damage.
