For some reason I can't get my archos to stay asleep. after 8 seconds of sleep it wakes itself up, thus rendering itself useless as the batter dies in a matter of hours. any ideas? I've already factory reset with no effect, so it really can't be any software installed.
Do you have enabled deep sleep?
(Settings)
perhaps I was not clear it will not do any kind of sleep. no matter what I enable deep sleep disable deep sleep, what ever power setting I set the device automatically turns on after about 8 seconds. picture this, the device sitting on the desk the screen turns on, a minute passes the screen turns off, 8 seconds pass the screen turns on, repeat until battery is dead.
I don't have my Archos right now, but I would install adb on the PC, and do:
adb logcat
Then put device to sleep, wait for it to wake up, and try to figure out from the messages what app turned it back on.
You could also try looking in System Monitor at the Wake Locks tab, and see if there's anything scheduling wakeups.
(If it wasn't sleeping in the first place, I'd say check your USB host port & see if it died.)

Anyone having trouble with BLN and deep sleep?
As soon as I get a notification and my button lights comes on my phone kicks in a "200mhz"-state and refuses to enter deep sleep until I dismiss that notification.
When I disable BLN then deep sleep works as normal even if I have some unread/unanswered sms/calls.
To test try this with BLN activated.
1. Open CPU Spy and press menu, then "Reset Timers"
2. Close CPU Spy
3. Turn off your screen
4. Trigger your Button Lights by SMS/Call/Mail or whatever.
5. Leave your phone alone with those nice button lights on for a couple of minutes.
6. Turn your screen on and reopen CPU Spy
Are you getting any deep sleep? I only get a few seconds and rest is 200mhz.
To test without BLN do this:To test try this with BLN activated.
1. Open CPU Spy and press menu, then "Reset Timers"
2. Close CPU Spy
3. Turn off your screen
4. Leave your phone alone for a couple of minutes.
5. Turn your screen on and reopen CPU Spy
Now deep sleep is working as normal.
Anyone can confirm?
Just got one tester in another thread and he says that he is getting deep sleep with BLN activated.
Yes, that is normal.
Deep sleep needs to be prevented in order to keep power fed to the lights as without power they wouldn't blink.

I have the problem, my A70 is not waking up from Deep Sleep anymore.
After a while with screen off I press the power button and the screen stays black.
Only a reset brings the device back to life.
As far as I know it is a known problem, but search does not work.
Is there any solution for it?
How can I deactivate Deep Sleep permanently?
I only have the Deep Sleep On/Off option in Energy Options but there should be an option where the time before the device goes to deep Sleep can be adjusted, but I don't find it.
Disabling Deep Sleep with the button mentioned above does not help.
With most it is connected to the display light dimmed below 30%.
There is no time setting for deepsleep.
Is there an app for automatic display dimming?
Or an App, where the settings can be set so that 30% on Archos equals 0% on the App (100% == 100%)?
One more THing:
I installed the App Wake Lock:
https://market.android.com/details?id=eu.thedarken.wl&feature=search_result
I set the wake lock to Partial Wake Lock, and got a Freeze.
Is this normal?
I thought Wake Lock should prevent going to deep sleep?
It would be interesting to check whether the device is actually not turning on, or simply not turning the LCD on. One way to check would be to perform some action that plays a sound or something.
It would also be interesting to see if you can connect via adb and see what events, if any, show up in the log when you press the power button.
Could you explain, what is adb?
Never heard of it
See this: http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html
This is probably fixed with an option in SuperDim 1.51dev2. See this thread.
have you guys noticed that when you power down the phone it does shut off but not completely. the reason i think that its not fully shut down is because the phone boots back up within seconds of powering on....also the up time and awake time have not been reset back to 0. this actually is the only way my phone goes to sleep. any other time when i just turn the screen off my phone won't really sleep (wake lock)..ive noticed this with the blackend rom and also infected rom...the way i found to fix the wake lock issue is to do a factory reset which fixes the problem until i have to charge the the phone which everyone knows that the phone won't sleep while charging. so have you guys experienced this? and also do you know whats causing the wake lock? ive searched the forums and cant find anything...thanks!!
Fastboot, in the power menu, turn it off.
ok turned off fastboot and this fixed the up time and awake time not resetting...still having the wake lock issue tho...any other ideas to fix this?

When you reboot your phone, it does not turn completely off because you are rebooting the phone. It is a feature added by htc to speed up reboot speeds. When you reboot, it kills all apps and processes, goes to sleep, and boots up.
Turn fastboot off (menu>settings>power>fastboot) if you want it to turn completely off while rebooting.
To make the phone sleep while charging, go to
menu>settings>applications>development and uncheck "stay awake"
went to my setting and the stay awake while charging was unchecked already...actually i dont mind having wake lock while charging...just the wake lock with normal use...thx tho

Basically I can leave my phone sitting with the screen off for awhile plugged in and eventually the phone acts as if it has been shut off. I think it is in deep sleep mode and it seems to do this quite often when it is on the charger. Is there a fix for this? I have read about this elsewhere but couldn't seem to find if someone knows how to get it fixed. And this is for my Optimus V with the default 2.2.1 android on it.
I have this problem too and it's very anoying. When I have an alarm turned on and sometimes the phone enters this SOD the alarm does not ring and when I pusn one of the buttons the lockscreen shows the hour the phone entered this deep sleep mode and after a second it refreshes with the current time.
Well my phone doesn't respond when I press any buttons or even touch the screen. Basically it would seem as if it is off because I think it went into deep sleep mode. There should be a option to turn deep sleep off but I have no clue how to do it. That is why I posted the question here.
This is driving me mad at night.
I press the power button to turn screen off. I also have phone set to sleep after two minutes. It stays off for approx two minutes, then the screen flashes on and stays on about 8 seconds, then screen goes off for two mins, and on, and repeat, all day and all bloody night long.
This happens whether the phone is on charge or not. Bluetooth off, just either wifi or data on.
I have it set to always on display so I have the clock on screen when off, I have tried turning this off but it still happens, any ideas?
I really REALLY do not want to wipe and start again.

SORTED. I had "allow notifications to turn screen on" turned on. Disabled that, and now no more flashing.
