Any known fixes for this issue?
What works for me is to change the timing settings in uimanager.lua, using Notepad++. The file is located at ./.kobo/koreader/frontend/ui/uimanager.lua.
Around line 300 you should see a "timeout=1" I change it to timeout=0. Then you should find another line like this: self:scheduleIn(0.5, function() Device:Suspend() end) I change it to: self:scheduleIn(2, function() Device:Suspend() end)

This gives me a suspend that is just a frozen screen that makes it so I can clean the screen or put my AuraHD in my pocket. I can check that it is working by poking where I would normally get a menu.

Sometimes, after along period of use I may have to restart Koreader for it to continue to work. Some others have tried this but they reported that it didn't work for them.

Luck;
Ken
