Sleep on power button press

[Zack Mitkin]

I have the latest android 7.1 RC2 on my surface 3, it works amazingly great. What is very annoying is when I click the power button I expect it to be like the phone to just turn the screen off and go to sleep mode. But instead it shuts down the device, so next time I press it I have to reboot. Is there any way to put it to sleep when the button is pressed?

Your device make and model ?

Isn't Surface 3 specific enough?

I don't have one, but I thought it was a clear description.

Sorry, my fault, didn't read your post entirely.
We get a lot of folks just asking why this or that doesn't work without
letting us know what device they have.

Does auto-sleep work for you ?

[Zack Mitkin]

no auto sleep does not work either. I think it goes to sleep, but I cannot turn it back on. When I click the power when I think it's in sleep, nothing at all happens no boot screen or anything. I have to hold the button for like 5 seconds then press again to turn device back on.

That means the device tries to sleep but hangs instead of sleeping.
Not a surprise, since Cherry Trail is a pretty newish platform and IIRC
7.1 RC2 only has kernel 4.9.

I have an Intel NUC Kit NUC6CAYH. Pressing the power button only shows the poweroff menu and does not send it to sleep. Is this a kernel issue?

[Stavros Christodoulou]

I believe sleeping is considered "broken", although it worked when I issued sleep commands from the terminal, with keyboard wakeup.

Set the property: poweroff.doubleclick=1

Then a single press goes to sleep, and
double presses in one second shows poweroff menu.

Note this is only for standard PC power button.
Surface 3 is not the case.

How would you do it on the Surface 3? Do you have it working fine on your surface 3?

[Robert Coldbird]

I know this issue and it seems to be limited to Cherry-Trail / Bay-Trail devices.
The only workaround I've found so far is to register a wake-lock with the kernel (essentially disabling sleep all-together) and leaving it there.
You can easily do this in the init-scripts for example by accessing the power sysfs nodes.

Once registered, tapping the power button will turn the screen on / off, and do nothing else.

You can just set the property: sleep.state=none

Can confirm it also affects Apollo Lake.
