Aura One light turns off
I have some some discussion of the Aura One light suddenly diminishing to nearly off while reading when set to Auto. I cannot find the discussion and any resolution to the problem. I am running 4.3.8945. It doesn't seem to want to update to the latest firmware.

I love my Aura One, but the auto adjusting light feature not so much. I ended up turning it off and just adjust manually. It's too bad--the auto adjusting light feature works great on my Voyage.

Same here.

I found the automatic adjustment was too sensitive and the screen brightness was always adjusting itself. I switched it off and I'm much happier now I can set to a level and it stays there.

I have the same firmware version, and it didn't fix the problem for me.

Like others mentioned, I just turn off the auto-adjust feature because it isn't fun to have it drop to 0% when you are reading in the dark!

sadly new Kobo firmware releases don't appear to be very good at fixing bugs going by what i've read on this forum, oh well never mind i hope you have better luck with the next one that come's along relatively soon i would imagine.

best wishes koboy

Something similar happened to my Aura One three times when I was reading at night (around 3am) in a darkened room, though I think the light turned completely off. I had Brightness and Natural light both set to auto, "Bedtime" setting was set to 11.00pm.

I tried unticking "Automatically turn off light in bright sunlight" in "Energy saving and privacy" within the settings menu and the problem hasn't reoccurred....yet.
(I'm also running firmware 4.3.8945)
