When you power on the device the backlight comes on at it's lowest setting, and the backlight icon shows it as being off. You can only turn off the backlight but turning it on properly, then turning it off. I was hoping this new update would fix that problem but it hasn't.
Is this bug exclusive to the Aura HD? Because I've not been able to replicate it on my Forma.

Steps taken

1) Turn off frontlight (eink doesn't have backlights)
2) Turn off Forma
3) Turn on Forma

The light stayed off, looking at settings confirmed it was at 0%, adjusting it one percent up and back down to zero produced the same appearance as was visible upon initial boot up.
