[U-Boot] RPi3 Not autobooting from SD-card. {Scanned}

Hi! I'm trying to boot from u-boot on a Raspberry Pi 3. But for some reason it isn't autobooting on the SD-card.
Is it possible to get more debug output on the screen console? I don't have a serial console at the moment. The output on the screen is:
Net: No ehternet found. starting USB... USB: Core Release 2.80a scanning bus 0 for devices... 4 USB Devices found scanning usb for storage devices... 0 Storage Device(s) found Hit any key to stop autoboot: 0 U-Boot>
Shouldn't it mention mmc somewhere in the boot message?
The first command I type on the prompt is always failing, it's not outputting anything. Just a new prompt on the next line. The next commands i type in are working. Which seems strange. I got boot.scr set up right, except graphic settings which are wrong. It is booting the kernel when I type 'run bootcmd'. But only after I type in another command before it. It seems like it's not detecting the SD-card (mmc0) until I have typed anything into the prompt.
Do I have to set any other env variable for it to autoboot? I would have printed the output of printenv here, but since I don't have a serial console, retyping everything is very time consuming. printenv seems to have the right settings. It's basically a full console screen of variables. It just doesn't seem to load them until I type in another command before it.
boot_targets=mmc0 usb0 pxe dhcp Which seems right to me.
I compiled the latest u-boot from github.
If you need more info please let me know and I'll post it.
Hope that anyone can point me in the right direction here. Would really appreciate it.

I'm seeing the same issues with 2018.03 rc3.
I'm not sure what the issue is and I've not had time to investigate it further yet, but if you type "boot" and hit enter it should boot, sometimes you actually have to type it twice. It will boot but I'm not sure which bits here have causes this regression.

I do not see this at all on my RPi3. Maybe it's firmware version dependent? Do you happen to have an image that always fails for you?

yes, config.txt:
arm_control=0x200 enable_uart=1 device_tree_address=0x100 kernel=u-boot.bin

Yes i did that as I explained in my last message. And now it autoboots.
But why doesn't it autoboot without it? Why is UART required to autoboot?
If I don't have that line in confg.txt I can manually boot with 'boot' 'run boot_cmd' without a problem. So it's not really problem with the boot itself. Just the automatic boot. And why doesn't the u-boot command prompt interpret the first command that is issued when enable_uart is disabled?
This seems like an issue that could be fixed.

I got it autobooting by adding enable_uart=1 to /boot/config.txt
But it seems like a bug that could be fixed, since it was booting, but only manually. Anyone got an idea what might cause this?
But the graphics mode is all wrong. The four raspberrys are purple and the resolution is extremely low. In u-boot, the graphics is ok in high resolution, but when booting the kernel it all changes. I'm guessing it's got something to do with the device tree not loading properly.
I finally got a serial console working. Here's the output:

Any idea what is wrong here:
Loading Environment from FAT... *** Warning - bad CRC, using default environment
I don't have an env file on the SD-card. So how can it give a CRC error? I tried to use saveenv at the u-boot prompt but i got an infinite repeating error. fsm 1, hsts 00000001
And this line:
reserving fdt memory region: addr=0 size=1000
Why is addr=0? And size=1000 seems low? But on the next line the size seems right.
Here's my boot.scr:
setenv fdtfile bcm2710-rpi-3-b.dtb mmc dev 0 fatload mmc 0:1 ${kernel_addr_r} kernel7.img fatload mmc 0:1 ${fdt_addr} ${fdtfile} setenv bootargs earlyprintk console=tty0 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootfstype=ext4 noinitrd rootwait dwc_otg.lpm_enable=0 elevator=deadline bootz ${kernel_addr_r} - ${fdt_addr}
Any help appreciated!

I'm not sure what the issue is and I've not had time to investigate it further yet, but if you type "boot" and hit enter it should boot, sometimes you actually have to type it twice. It will boot but I'm not sure which bits here have causes this regression.

I'm seeing the same issues with 2018.03 rc3.
I'm not sure what the issue is and I've not had time to investigate it further yet, but if you type "boot" and hit enter it should boot, sometimes you actually have to type it twice. It will boot but I'm not sure which bits here have causes this regression.

Can anyone share their working u-boot configuration for RPi3? With a working graphics mode and device tree overlay. config.txt boot.scr and any other config files you might have. I'm running a normal Raspbian Stretch lite image with stock 32bit kernel. I compiled u-boot with |rpi_3_32b_defconfig|

I got it autobooting by adding enable_uart=1 to /boot/config.txt
But it seems like a bug that could be fixed, since it was booting, but only manually. Anyone got an idea what might cause this?
But the graphics mode is all wrong. The four raspberrys are purple and the resolution is extremely low. In u-boot, the graphics is ok in high resolution, but when booting the kernel it all changes. I'm guessing it's got something to do with the device tree not loading properly.
I finally got a serial console working. Here's the output:

Any idea what is wrong here:
Loading Environment from FAT... *** Warning - bad CRC, using default environment
I don't have an env file on the SD-card. So how can it give a CRC error? I tried to use saveenv at the u-boot prompt but i got an infinite repeating error. fsm 1, hsts 00000001
And this line:
reserving fdt memory region: addr=0 size=1000
Why is addr=0? And size=1000 seems low? But on the next line the size seems right.
Here's my boot.scr:
setenv fdtfile bcm2710-rpi-3-b.dtb mmc dev 0 fatload mmc 0:1 ${kernel_addr_r} kernel7.img fatload mmc 0:1 ${fdt_addr} ${fdtfile} setenv bootargs earlyprintk console=tty0 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootfstype=ext4 noinitrd rootwait dwc_otg.lpm_enable=0 elevator=deadline bootz ${kernel_addr_r} - ${fdt_addr}
Any help appreciated!

I'm not sure what the issue is and I've not had time to investigate it further yet, but if you type "boot" and hit enter it should boot, sometimes you actually have to type it twice. It will boot but I'm not sure which bits here have causes this regression.
