Product: Envy x360 13-ay0285ng

My problem:

- I would like to use S3 state deep sleep instead of the "modern standby" currently available.

- "Modern standby" drains the battery a lot more than classic S3 sleep, this is why I want to use the latter.

- According to the ACPI table the S3 is disabled in the firmware (BIOS), which is understandable as this and the "modern standby" are mutually exclusive.

- In other notebooks there is a switch for this in the BIOS, to switch between S3 and modern standby, but here there is nothing.

- I am on the latest F.15 BIOS.

- As I understand it, the option is probably available in the bios but it is hidden by HP so that the end users can not switch.

 

Is there any chance that I can still activate and use proper S3 sleep instead of the "modern standby"?

 

Thank you very much in advance,

Daniel
