4.1 jailbroken
Images are attached -- this is incredibly strange, but my "apps" are all running at 1/4 the screen size, even though my home screen and lock screen look normal. I've put "apps" in quotations, because even stock apps run at 1/4 screen size including the Mail App, iPod, Phone App, even Settings!
Even more strange is the behavior of the OS to touch input. If I start finger scrolling in the "black space" (i.e. the portion of the screen where the app is not occupying), the OS doesn't respond. However, if I start the scroll in the used space then continue sliding into the "black space" I can scroll just fine.
Also, the calibration of my touches aren't aligned with what's onscreen (post-miniaturization). For example, since the app is now running at 1/4 the screen size, everything occupies a different space than it normally does, i.e. it's "squeezed" to the top left section of the screen. If I touch the app on the new position where an icon or menu item appears, the OS interprets that touch as if the app were running full screen, so instead of pressing what I intended, I instead activate what would have been occupying the space where my finger touched if the app were running at normal size. You may argue that this behavior is just a byproduct of everything being smaller and my touches being less precise, but trust me, this is not the case. My touches are clearly registering as if the app were running full screen.
More weirdness: some elements aren't miniaturized. Although most things are scaled down, the carrier signal is not, nor is the "bulb" on the ringer volume slider in Settings/Sounds or on the Brightness slider.
I've powered on/off, I've also rebooted via Home+Sleep. I always return to the same behavior.
This just started happening randomly an hour ago. I jailbroke this weekend and had only a few hiccups which I corrected. I had several days of glitch-free operation. The only thing that I think happened within the last hour was that I updated a few apps, but these were all apps from the official App store and were relatively harmless. I don't remember which ones updated, but there were 6 in total. I can't imagine that this would be the problem though....
What's going on!??!?!
Edit: Safe Mode allows me to run full screen. Looks like I'll be in this mode until I get home.
Edit 2: Apparently the culprit was SimpleBackground. Uninstalling fixed the issue. Thank you to thespazz for the solution.
