Why do all the ground leads short outs beteween each other after Packing Virtex-4 via BGA?

After We have assembled the Virtex-4 FPGA BGA package on our custom design PCB, we check for short circuits between all power grounding and they shows short cut between each other. Please tell us about any process for debugging this issue.

Check you CAD database.
Test you custom PCB before BGA packing.
Check every pin on the board.
Consider if Virtex-4 is too old to run with your circuit.

What should we look for on PCB samples?

I am a purchase executive. And I have received the PCB samples from supplier. What do usually look for on the samples? What factors should I check?

Can through-hole leads be cut filed level with the PCB back while maintaining good connectivity?

I’m looking at using a through hole mounted CR2016 battery holder on a circuit but the leads need to be level with the back of the PCB due to size constraints.

Can I design SMD elements on the back of THT?

I’m designing a PCB right now and found out I can save a lot of space using the back of THT elements. Is it legit to design like that? Are there any problems that might occur?
