Amit,

The 90 seconds delay is key here.  In "install bootloader" mode, you must make sure to start the USB download process within 90 seconds of powering up hikey.

The log you attached makes sense to me. Everything are reasonable. Here for your reference, is on mine board and PC. In this case, I should run 'hisi-idt.py' before [14495.204951].

Assuming the board/SoC is working correctly the /dev/ttyUSB0 port will only be available for about 90 seconds after power up.
You need to use the python script to start the initial bootloader installed during this period.
The log below suggests a hardware problem.
Yang Zhang may be able to find you another board (we are awaiting more from CircuitCo).

The USB device is getting registered but gets disconnected. I can see others have faced similar issue but i can't find a fix for this problem
