Perhaps try the UART adaptor with minicom instead of screen as well.
I was able to reproduce what you described with my pinetab. On screen I tried a couple of times and had no message the first time, and only an illegible message the second time, but with minicom I get the correct output that shows the bootup process. This is with a pinetab that likely has a similar issue to yours as the original install is not working and I am running from the SD card slot.
So hopefully this is what you need to fix it.
For me, I am using this as an opportunity to try out different images from the SD card before reinstalling.
Good luck
