i86 Sleep Issues

Hi, I have an i86 with the May 2017 firmware update.
This problem pre-dates that update.
I have looked here for an answer to this and have only found some glancing references to the issue, and no fix.

The i86 doesn't sleep--at all, on a schedule. It can be manually "sleeped" but this
is a marginal consolation. It will power off on a schedule,
but it won't sleep. I have tried the "Greenify" app that someone
recommended here, and it does nothing. I still have Android
4.0.4 on the device. Any advice would be appreciated as many things
about this e-reader are good, but this no-sleep issue is a real nuisance.
The only current way to save power is to power off between reading sessions.
