... with Android if you click the power button, instead of holding it, she will suspend with no recovery except removing the power or pressing the reset button/  its been a fit for me with my playbox; because I have trouble avoiding contact bounce due to reaching into the enclosure ( through a trap door ) and not being able to reliably 'hold' the button.  I have to redesign that whole thing...  rats.

Hm... it might be worth you trying again with the latest Android image then - I was unable to reproduce that with the 8GB "Android 5.1.1 Image (HDMI Video Output) Release 20160711"... I could consistently put the pine64 into standby by pressing the power button, waiting about 10 seconds for the power usage to settle, and the pressing the button again to wake it up. This is with the direct-mount PCB mount tactile switch. The earlier image was erratic... and would consume the right amount of power to indicate it was awake again, but no output on the HDMI. I suppose another possibility might be the difference between HDMI and LCD... because you'd probably want to use the LCD build since you have the LCD... Most I've had to do with the latest build is switch my display back to HDMI as it auto-switches back to the computer when the pine64 goes to sleep.
