For my reference mainly, attached below are the boot messages from the Mele A1000G Quad with the original Android kernel. Unfortunately the UART connector is just a little bit too small to take the CP2102 USB-serial adapter so now I have to find an Audio CD header block of the sort used by CD-ROMs in the 1990s. However I was able to connect the GND and TX which is enough to get the serial output below.
This site has been very useful.
