So resetting the power settings is not possible or necessary while running the stock kernel. IOW, that's not the cause of the reboots. Maybe the reflash didn't go quite right, maybe you loaded the wrong firmware, maybe your phone has developed a hardware problem, or maybe some software is causing trouble. But trying to fix it by attempting to change power settings while running the stock kernel will get you nowhere.
For me the kernel power (settings) were not wiped after OTA firmware update, mine was still installed and all my custom profiles worked imediately after reinstall kernel-power kernel-power-flasher, also after pr1.3 both kernel power and settings showed as installed, hence the need to reinstall not install kernel-power (afaik the flasher component is only needed if you want to use multi boot)

Afaik, someone correct me if im wrong, kernel-power and settings are not wiped at all, the new PR1.3 kernel is just flashed as a replacement, leaving kernel-power installed but not in use.
