Can anyone tell me what sort of app is this and what's it doing in the background.?
I don't have any such app, this is not a device specific app. Probably, this app does not have an icon so Android assigned it one by default. One more possiblity is that it might be some app which you tried to uninstall but it could not uninstall completely and some core parts of app are still installed (though this is highly unlikely).
P.S. Please add a more helpful title of the post so that others can also take benefit of it.

I dont think so. But I can survive with this problem and when I think that this is ugly, I remember my old wildfire stucked on 2.2.1 with 550mhz processor (until yesterday), and then they not look to much ugly to me..
If I found someway to fix it, I'll post it here.
Found a workaround: on app drawer, use "spare parts " and select extra small fonts. I also use Android default font, search for it here on forum.

When I open some apps, it only cover little over half the screen. Below are some screenshots of the apps with 480x720 res issue I was referring to. Doesn't have any problem when I was on 2.2.2 though.
Edit : SOLVED

Spare parts from the market I believe there is a check mark for compatibility mod or something
It's ironic because Spare Parts runs at half resolution itself.

Welcome bro, always glad to help
I love you man
Hope devs will somehow saw this thread and update it in their roms
it nice bro
Hi,
For "roms" you could just include spare parts. If not, you need to write an app that sets Settings.System.COMPATIBILITY_MODE to 0.
Cheers!

What would this do in terms of stability? It would make sense that unchecking compatibility mode would break something.

Hi,
You would hope that none of the included system apps or bundled bloat would need compatibility mode. And older apps in the market that might need it probably aren't worth keeping.
Cheers!
Everything seems to be working just fine though
Is there a replacement app that in the conversation view, shows who sent the last message (in addition to the actual message)?

I'm unsure of what exactly you're looking for - based on how you ask it, to me - sounds like the stock Messaging App already has this.
Are you on stock ROM?

No,
The stock application shows the message in conversation view, but it does not say WHO sent it (me or the other person).

Head into the Play store and search for GO SMS
it's a pretty decent SMS app that works on most Android phones

GoSMS would be recommended by myself as well if thats what you need/want. I downloaded it and confirmed it does display WHO sent it.

Oh, i'm unsure where in settings it is. By default after I installed it, it already had that feature enabled. I'll take a look around when I have a moment.

I have the premium version some how or another? I didn't pay for anything. I uninstalled it to reinstall it and noticed there is a premium version as opposed to the Go SMS Pro (free) version.
Ok,
But where is that option located?
Handcent sms is the other sms replacement. ..n0t sure it has ur feature but worth checking out

Don't use any of the apps like GO. They are filled with adware and are subpar apps in the first place.

For a messenger app with emoji I recommend Textra. It might have a couple adds, but pro version is very cheap. For a keyboard app, they all have emoji. I recommend stock or SwiftKey.

Some app was updated with this. I do not have any GO products nor any CM ones. Has anyone figured out what this is? Could it be some Samsung 'improvement' forced on us?

I've been a paid Swype user for years now, haven't found another keyboard that suits me as well, to be honest. I tried SwiftKey, etc. and didn't care for them.
Chrooma keyboard. Dope. Nuff said. Fleksy is cool too once you get used to it and the way you input keys..its quite different. but I like swiping for words sometimes and fleksy doesn't support that. Chrooma has been my favorite since I can't flash AOSP keyboard with number row.

I have solved the problem on my device
Hi
I had the same problem.
If you can have access to a terminal in your device, you can see the running processes with ps command.
I use it to see what processes where running when I saw that screen appear once again, what I could see at the output from the command line was that two of the running process where related to a wallpapers app (KittyPlay wallpapers) and had some estrange references to the following namespaces:
com.jiubang.commerce.service.IntelligentPreloadService
com.jiubang.commerce.chargelock
The first thing that come to my mind was the obvious relation of "chargelock" with the kind of screen lock that was appearing on my device and the fact that a few days ago I have installed f-droid and this application offered to update the KittyPlay application, so I updated thinking that there was no problem with the updated app. After the update I started to see the speedcharge lock screen.
The only way for me to know what was causing the problem was to use the command line and trying to identify the processes involved.
I uninstalled the mentioned application (KittyPlay) and the speedcharge lock screen stopped from appearing.
Hope this can be helpful to solve the problem for you.
I've had the same problem for awhile now. Turns out it was GO Weather. I'd used it for years without any real problems but this is it. I just uninstalled, rebooted and the speedcharge lockscreen is gone.
It is also in GO power master but all I did was go to settings and unclick Boost Charge. There is also an option to unclick launch GO power master when charging.
I found it in zcamera.
ES file Explorer has been bundled with the speed charger addware as well.

You have CM Locker installed because I used to. Now you can turn that option off or just uninstall CM Locker.

King root installs "cleaner" software on your device. Just find it in settings/applications and uninstall it. Just don't uninstall super user or King user

By cleaner are you referring to "Purify"?
Hey guys, i would have sworn i saw this advertised at some point on the V20 for a section where you can view recently uninstalled apps. Now that i have the device i can't seem to find it. Could this be one of the things Verizon stripped from the phone?

Yeah see Verizon customers have apps on our devices. We have App manager and under the three dots there's no uninstalled apps.. There's is "uninstall apps" which of course allows you to uninstall apps
