   Uhg my Android backlight brightness adjustment just stopped responding. It's stuck at a medium level (I think?) even across reboots. Any ideas what could cause that?

     @wyatt It seemed the same on manual and auto settings. But it's back to normal now leaving me with no clue what happened. I was outdoors in bright light, so all I can figure is that maybe the reflective lighting was overpowering the backlight and I wasn't even seeing the backlight? But that should have been more dependent on angle/shadows than it was.

     @dalias ambient light sensor blockage or damage?
