    Newbie here - need help, please!

    Hello all,

    Got a new iPad and jail breaking worked like a charm! Here is my issue: I started downloading a few apps from Cydia and the apps store. When I open up any app, even the native apple ones, the do not open full screen (only about iPhone size), but give me options like close, Full screen or rotate. When I tap full screen, I get a full screen. I looked in settings, but zoom does not change anything. Any advice, please?

    Thanks in advance,

    hansmann

    It appears as if you have got some tweak installed on your iPad that is making it "think" it's an iPhone. In other words, something you've installed is not compatible with your iPad or iOS (or both).

    If you can, list the tweaks you have installed and hopefully we can help you ID the culprit. Thanks.

    Sounds like you may have tried out Quasar? Try removing that.

    Thank you very much!

    f4780 - you were spot on - removed Quasar - and bingo! Problem solved!
