It does sound like a fried switcher, causing a low impedance path between 5V and ground. This is likely causing your 5V rail to sag, so it might explain why your Android won't connect. One way to hack around this problem is to desolder the switcher or the inductor. I would first verify this guess by measuring resistance between 5V and GND when not powered, and expect that you'll see a low value in the few ohm or less range.
