Hi,
I was never able to make my MINIX Z84-4 to wake up via mouse/keyboard. I use it as HTPC with Kodi.
Firmware 1.7 (there is no wake up option in BIOS)
Windows 10 (last one)

powercfg -availablesleepstates -> sais me that there is no S1/S2/S3 standby mode. Only S4 (hybernation) is available.
If I put it in S4 (hybernation) I found no way to wake it up via USB keyboard. all the wake up option in USB Hubs/devices are unavailable.
If I use teh sleep (suspend) mode from Kodi it goes in hybernation, so no way to wake it up from keyboard.

Some one of you do perhaps, have some kind of solution to wake the MINIX up from S4 with a USB device or to activate the S3 mode?
 
No idea with USB devices but you can send a Wol magic packet from your smartphone to wake up the Minix.

Many thanks for your answer, however I suppose it is esyer and faster to turn it on via power button as I do actually.
I am looking for a real HTPC solution in order to turn it on with the remote.

It is possible to do it with Android MINIX like X5 and X7, but I was not happy with video quality. It is just amazing with Windows and Kodi 18. Nevertheless, no way to wake it up via remote. :(
