I just wonder if this firmware might finally, finally, finally fix the light adjust lag that has been plaguing the 6" Aura for nearly two-years. I've stuck with firmware 3.12.1 all this time because it's the last version where that feature actually works correctly.

Edit: I can happily report that the problem has been mostly resolved. The two-finger light adjustment is still not instantaneous like it was in 3.12.1 (why not!), but the response delay is considerably less than it was previously where you had to wait as long as a second or two for the light fade to catch up with your swipe which rendered the feature almost unusable. To put this more simply, you can finally make fine adjustments again without accidentally jumping to maximum/minimum brightness. You have no idea how much that aggravated me.

I think I'll keep this one for a while and see if the slight lag becomes annoying over time. I can always go back to 3.12.1 if it does (I have a copy of it squirreled away on my hard drive specifically for such occasions).
