Turning off Microsoft Surface Dial Sleep Mode

Viewed 1690

while developing for the new Microsoft Surface Dial I noticed the device going to sleep after a few minutes and taking about 1-2 seconds to wake up again after an interaction with the device. This is insufficient for my specific use case, where the application has to give immediate feedback.

I've tried turning off the energy settings for the bluetooth device in the device manager, but the problem persists. Is there a way to turn this off, either in code or in some other way?

Unfortunately there is no way to solve the issue without a Microsoft firmware update. The unit use a Nordic Semiconductor nRF52832 Bluetooth Low Energy SoC, is possible change that on the chip, but with a firmware update. Really sorry but is the only way.
