To be honest I don't know what to do.

Is it possible to reinstall the firmware (just incase someting wrong happened during the previous installation)?
The "bedtime manager" is for the changing the colour of the light. You set a bedtime, and in the hours before that, the blue is gradually removed from the light. Or maybe it is better to say that the white LEDs are turned down and the coloured LEDs turned up. But, this is only on the devices with coloured LEDs. You list your device as an Aura Edition 2. That doesn't have a coloured light. It shouldn't have the bedtime options in the light brightness popup. And hence it shouldn't have the bedtime in the config file. Have you been fiddling with the config file? Or using a patch that does this?

In any case, check if there is a "BedTime" line in the "PowerOptions" section of the config file. Or anything with "Color" as part of the name. If there is removed them. Or remove the whole PowerOptions section. After you do that, reboot the device to make sure everything is clean. If you did remove the section, you will need t adjust any of the power related settings.
