What display and night mode issue???
 
No, I removed it.
Is your laptop using the same RTL8821AE chipset for wifi+bluetooth?
No mine is intel. Bluetooth 4.0 works out of the box for me but it does not connect to a lot of my LE peripherals so I don’t really use it.

You don't need applebacklightfixup now that Whatevergreen is handling it. It's probably confusing the system now coz you have both
update Lilu to 1.4.0 and Whatevergreen to 1.3.5
you also don't need appleps2 and voodoops2 .
also no need applealc and voodoohda

Gotta read carefully. Use only one of the two following methods. You did both.

Step 9: backlight brightness
  1. Method 1: Put the attached SSDT-PNLF in /EFI/Clover/ACPI/patched
  2. Method 2: Check these boxes in clover configurator:
    1. ACPI -> Fixes -> Page 2 -> AddPNLF
    2. Devices -> SetIntelBacklight & SetIntelMaxBacklight

You've set a platform_id but not a device_id for your IGPU for Whatevergreen. My suspicion is WhateverGreen thus failed to detect what IGPU you really have, and therefore unable to inject the proper IntelMaxValue for you. Your quick sync probably won't work either.
