Is this a common problem? Any solution for this?

Thanks
 
Did you implement backlight control?
Yes, your brightness fix in DSDT along with your IntelBacklight.kext

Edit: i just re-read your brightness control thread and maybe i should try ACPIBacklight.kext, will try that now.

Actually, i noticed that the screen is not completely off but the backlight is very very low.

Does it mather if i apply the Brightness fix (Broadwell) after the normal Brightness fix or should i just apply Brightness fix (Broadwell) on my native DSDT.dsl along with my other patches?

AFAIK, only "Brightness Fix" patch is required along with IntelBacklight.kext...

Recommendation is "Brightness Fix" + IntelBacklight.kext.
 
Could the issue be something else then?
