For the problem: Too much current has been drawn on VDD. Please disconnect your circuit and check the CLK and DATA lines for shorts and then reconnect. I also had the problem, maybe a procedural error, try to disconnect and reconnect ... it worked for me.
Have you considered that there actually might be a short that's causing the overcurrent on VDD? You can also check voltages on VDD, should be 1.8V on VDD1V8, then look at VDD2V5 if it's anything like the S9.
