Recalibrate it. Go into a totally dark room, reduce your screen brightness to zero and then switch off auto brightness. Then switch it on again and let the phone take care of things.

You may find that you need to 'teach' it a little, ie when in a normally lit room the screen may be too bright for you so reduce the slider a little.

Update just happened again after fresh restore, what could it be???

Are you using any screen protector/case/bumper?
If not, did you use one before?

Did you go to settings > brightness and saw there that the brightness is really going up in a dark environment?

Did you try cleaning your screen, especially above the receiver?
