Did you try to boot from network? You can stop at u-boot prompt when
appears "Hit any key to stop autoboot:". Sometimes it is hard to press any
key at this moment.
You can set bootdelay to something not 0.

Then you can do something like:

setenv ipaddr 192.168.111.2
env set serverip 192.168.111.1
env set bootargs boot.nfsroot.server=${serverip}
boot.nfsroot.path=/var/arm64 comconsole_speed=${baudrate}
tftpboot ${kernel_addr_r} loader.efi
tftpboot ${fdt_addr_r} rk3399-rockpro64.dtb
bootefi ${kernel_addr_r} ${fdt_addr_r}
