Just adding a comment that I am trying armbian focal with the 5.8.6 kernel and xfce as the desktop. My experience matches the OP's observations, namely that the magnet seems to work because the screen will black out when closing. It may even be suspending, but I still hear a slight "hum" from the board when I hold it up to my ear. But resume from suspend seems to be the "broken" part. Have to hard reset the device after it enters suspend by closing the lid OR by manually selecting suspend from the menu.
Sorry I haven't quite been able to internalize all the comments about mrfixit's u-boot or xmixahlx's pbp-tools being able to address the issue. I'm just a casual reader of the forums and am hoping the centralized wiki can address a standardized way to get suspend working.
Thanks to all working on the pbp: I know in the end we all are indebted to your work!
