Will closing the case put the Kindle into sleep mode?

yes it does put it into sleep mode but i prefer to power mine off when not in use due to the charging time.

I'm not sure about closing the case, but opening the case will turn the kindle on.

No. There are cut outs in the case for charging and the sleep button. My only quirk about the case "was" that it didn't have built-in magnets to automatically put it to sleep when closed. Easy fix with cheap magnets i had laying around the house.

You don't have to do anything. just shut the cover and it will put it to sleep and when you open it up is wakes your kindle back up. There shouldn't be any set up

It doesn't seem to me to be a secure feature so much as one that is meant to turn the Kindle off when you shut it. Also, the magnet on mine is located in the top right corner, not in the middle. Again, a feature if the auto shut-off?

First off, yes it does but the Kindle will time-out and go back to sleep if it was accidentally awoken from movement of the top of the case. What I did was get some of the adhesive vel-cro from WalMart or a similar store (should be in either the hardware section or the arts and crafts) and place a small strip in between the magnets, making sure not to cover them, or the vel-cro being too think so the magnets are unable to put the Kindle to sleep. Hope this helps, happy reading!

Yes it puts it into sleep mode. Make sure you buy cover they supports this function. Haven't noticed any significant battery life reduction in this mode.

Yes, when I close mine my kindle turns off or goes to sleep however you want to look at it. When I open it, my kindle opens to the lock screen.

Make sure your Kindle is positioned in the case correctly. It actually goes in up side down--camera to the right. Then make sure your Kindle is unlocked so it will rotate. The sleep function should happen automatically.

Yes. When you shut the case it automatically puts your ipad mini in "sleep" mode and when you open the case it comes on. This saves your battery.

No. I have had mine for several months and this has never happened. I read it bent back all the time. The Kindle does turn off if the page has not been changed for a while.

No. It remains on/awake when you close the cover. You must activate the sleep mode manually by pressing the button on the side of the Nook.

The LED light is not visible when the case is closed unless it's dark and you're looking at it from an angel. The screen will go into sleep mode when the case is closed, but will not wake when it's opened.

Check the settings/general on your ipad. Sleep mode has nothing to do with the case.

1st, I have the HD and my daughter has the regular Kindle Fire. Her's does not go into sleep mode. On my Kindle HD, (as others stated) I never had to set anything, it just went to sleep when the cover was closed and turns on when it's opened. Some sensor in the bottom right causes it to sleep and wake up. These Flintie cases do cause this to happen.

I haven't noticed this case draining my battery when closed at all. In fact it actually puts my iPad in automatic sleep mode when I close it.
