I received some of these "HW-628 V1.1" boards myself. They are not the same as the baord shown in your last picture.
There are two mistakes on my HW-628 V1.1 board:
-the pin label between SD0 and SD2 is incorrect, "GND", it should be labeled "CMD" (your board has the same problem)
-the antenna is connected to the ground plane and does not work (your antenna does not have this problem).By making a few cuts in the ground plane I could restore the wire from the inductor (connected to ESP8266 pin 2) to the antenna and further to the ground via, and then WiFi works again.
This is the "repaired" version:
