You may be wearing sunglasses, or unintentionally changed the contrast.
Without the backlight on the display uses reflected light, so I
suspect contrast.
In the worst case I have seen eMates with areas of the display that
were dark in comparison to other parts. and I have seen these reach
about 2" diameter so it is possible that the screen is actually
darkening though I have never seen it on a 2x00.
When the extras drawer is open, the contrast slider is visible. If
adjusting the contrast helps but not enough, double tapping the
contrast label will re-center it and allow further adjustment.
Un-doing this action is possible only with a brainwipe and not
restoring 'system information', but you canre-adjust in the other
direction to get approximately back to the starting point.
