Keeping in mind that I don't have an Aura to try this on but you might want to try the following:

Plus your Aura in for a couple of hours to charge it.

Hold the power switch to the right covering the LED for 15-20 seconds to ensure it is turned off.

Let go of the power switch and wait a few seconds.

Press and hold the light switch.

Slide the power switch to turn the Aura on. Watch the LED and when it starts rapidly flashing, release the light switch.

You should now be factory resetting back to 2.8.0

Go through the usual setup and firmware update.

If the above doesn't trigger a factory reset, try holding the light switch while doing a pin hole reset. Again hold the light switch until the LED starts rapidly flashing.

Good luck!

Regards,
David
