Archos Android S5

I just can’t work out he power management on the Archos. Sometimes when I have WiFi and background data running the screen dims, shuts off and the power light goes out. All well and good, I assume the device is in a deep sleep, I perform a long press of the power button and the device wakes from sleep, Wifi and Background data are near instant on.

But, other times, albeit a longer period in-between power cycles, the device will cold boot! So, my question is – How long untill the device powers down from deep sleep? and How the hell do I control it?

Also, very occasionally when manually enter sleep mode the green power light fails to turn off. I did track down co.android.wizard which appears to be able to control WiFi swirching. I was killing this task in my quest for free memory, but I set it to ignore in Taskiller, that worked, but only after a couple of re-boots. Arrrgh!

If I want it to sleep allday so my browser windows are still there in the evening I shoulod be able to.
