I'm sorry about the slow response. It's often difficult for me to respond on weekends.
How/where are you measuring that 1.3volts? Yes, you should get 5V on the lines that connect the add-on board to the main board. Then, there is a regulator that will buck the 5V to 3.3V for some of the logic. See the attachment.
If you aren't measuring those voltages, I might wonder if the analog sticks are hooked up incorrectly or if there is some solder bridging some connections somewhere. Post some photos if you can. Maybe try removing the analog sticks and re-testing the voltages.
When you said "the "R" button (not trigger, not direction) now just dims the screen, and opens a menu once i'm actually inside of a game system folder." that makes me think that something is soldered incorrectly and when you press the R button it is causing some system voltage to droop.
Also, please see this new document (if you haven't already):
