Can I force activate deep sleep / doze mode when screen is locked but not off?

I've got a ROM on my Galaxy S5 with Always-On Display tech but it remains stuck at the lowest frequency (300MHZ) while the AOD is active thus phone never enters deep sleep state and it drains more battery. Is there some shell command or some way to make the phone enter deep sleep even when the AOD is active and technically the screen is not off (although the ROM thinks it is). I never understood how the newer phones enter deep sleep while keeping AOD nonstop running. Would be nice to let my phone sleep while AOD is turned on.

Hi again mate ;)
I don't think it's possible unfortunately...
Just disable AOD if you don't want to loose battery.
By the way are you using nemesis reborn v4 ROM like me ?
I'm using sparkplug kernel but I still got less than 4 hours SOT and I can't find solutions at all !

I used Tasker to make AOD turn on only when the phone is being charged, works ok.
And yes, I'm on Nemesis v4, very soon will be on v5 when it comes out :)
I get ~2h SOT and ~24h total life out of my phone. I'll buy a brand new battery after I flash v5 and set it up as I like it. My battery is really bad, I know it.

How do you control AOD from Tasker?
