I am surprised though as all I could find on differences between MT7628 and MT7688 are is a reference on Mediatek site: https://docs.labs.mediatek.com/resource/linkit-smart-7688/en/faq
Q: What’s MT7628 and how is it different from MT7688AN?
The MT7628 series are pin-to-pin compatible with the MT7688 series. However, MT7628 comes with a 2T2R antenna, while MT7688 only supports 1T1R antenna.
(Incomplete!) comparison of the two datasheets did not show relevant differences.
I have started an analysis of current register status (and I quickly hit limitation of the documentation I have):
b0000008: 00010000 .... E-Fuse Configuration is not pristine, but I don't know what it my mean.
b0000010: 00111144 D... System Configuration Register 0 ->0000 0000 0001 0001 0001 0001 1000 1000
Not correct:
System Configuration Register 0 ->0000 0000 0001 0001 0001 0001 0100 0100
Right. Shame on me.
00000000 TEST_CODE 000 * 100010001 BS_SHADOW 000 * 1 DBG_JTAG_MODE 1: Normal Boot-up 1 TEST_MODE_1 ?? 0 XTAL_FREQ_SEL 0: 25MHz DIP ??? 0 EXT_BG 0: BG clock from PMU 0 TEST_MODE_0 0: SUTIF 100 CHIP_MODE 100: SCAN mode
Not correct. You have here 010, so XTAL with 3-byte ADR
0 DRAM_TYPE 0: DDR2
I am concerned by TEST_MODE_1,XTAL_FREQ_SEL and CHIP_MODE that might signal a different up/down pulling of Bootstrapping Pins. Could You cross check on LinkIt, please?

Okay, thanks. We can compare this now in depth.
SYSCFG0: 00156156
CHIP_MODE: 011: XTAL with 4-byte ADR.
Mainline U-Boot reports this:
CPU: MT7628 Rev 1.2 - Boot from XTAL (4-Byte SPI Addr)
My mainline (RAM) reports: CPU: MT7628 Rev 1.2 - Boot from XTAL (3-Byte SPI Addr)
and the new code from Weijie reports this:
CPU: MediaTek MT7688A ver:1 eco:2 Boot: DDR2, SPI-NOR 4-Byte Addr, CPU clock from XTAL Clock: CPU: 580MHz, Bus: 193MHz, XTAL: 40MHz
One important difference which might explain a lot, it XTAL_FREQ_SEL which is 0 in your case and 1 in my case.
IIUTC, then the new code from Weijie takes this XTAL selection into account. Weijie might comment on this. I suggest that you give this "u-boot-mtmips.bin" binary a try. Good luck. :)
No good ;(
Ughhh. Too bad. :-(

Note: I assumed u-boot-mtmips.bin is linked at 9c000000, right?
You don't need to know where it is linked to if you program it into SPI NOR. But yes, the first stage the SPL is linked to 0x9c000000.
I assume difference in the very last word (actually the first word out) is significant.
I don't understand this comment. Please explain.
As said there could be differences in Bootstrapping pins latching. I will review that after lunch...
Okay.
Thanks, Stefan
