Yes - the loose +5v wired seemed to be the obvious candidate for a
source of problems.
The dmesg log seems shows the problem to be initial connection of
device. 
The vendor and device id of the device were not even obtained so the Pi
could not even identify what sort of USB device has been attached. So
problem is in early stages of connection.

There are 4 wires. Two signal wire D+ and D- provide differential
signalling.  As I  understand it, the signals at idle are pulled down by
host but when a device connects to host, the device pulls one of them up
with a 1.5kOhm resistance. Could there be some problem with this
resistance value between Pi and cable ?
