On my JB iPhone 5 (6.1.2) whenever I try to send a message(containing an image) from my photos app, the layout is all weird, and doesn't fill my screen.

It's like it's for the older devices with smaller screens because of the blank at the bottom.

I tried to do it in safe mode, and it still does it.

What is causing this? Any fix?
Thanks

Go to:

Settings-General-Keyboard-Keyboards. Do you have English (UK) as one of your keyboards? If so, swipe to delete and just make sure you have English enabled.
 
i have the same problem. i have no idea how to fix it. i don't see any other threads on this so maybe it's one of our tweaks causing this issue.

I restored my phone earlier, and it fixed the issue.

Now the issue came back, and I don't want to restore because of 6.1.3.

Anyone have a solution?

i personally narrowed it down to winterboard and another person said it was due to appsync and in both cases, uninstalling winterboard or appsync did not fix the problem, only a restore did

looks like you'll have to live with it for now unless someone is able to find concrete evidence what is causing the problem and how to fix it.
 
download flex from Cydia. Then install the full screen tweak for springboard from flex. Fixes the problem!
 
It's more like a workaround the problem. All flex does is "stretch" it (meaning everything) to a 4" display. It might negatively affect other apps that haven't been updated to the 4" display

The Flex tweak that fixes this issue causes screen shrinkage issues after you install various cydia tweaks.
 
Thinking of trying Screen Extender, any others here tried it as a fix?
The Flex tweak sorta works, but on occasion causes Cydia to shrink to a forth of its size in app.

Screen extender is working great for me! What's nice is, it's setup just to extend the screen when sharing pics from camera roll. Just follow the instructions in my link above and it won't negatively effect anything else.
 
I have been using the fix from flex beta for a few weeks now. While it does fix the screen problem, sometimes it causes apps to shrink to the upper left quarter of the screen as others have described.

I installed screen extender from Cydia earlier this week and it magically works in the background. No more problems sending pictures, no more shrunken screen in upper left, no more need for buggy flex tweak!

I just installed Screen Extender, but I'm not seeing the Photos app listed in it. Is it under a different name? Sadly it's not in alphabetically order and there are a few blanks.
