Thank you for your work which has been very helpful in my troubleshooting attempts.
Could someone provide me with an image?
That looks like the device has gotten confused about whether it is a Glo HD or Touch 2. These are very similar in the hardware and there is a test when booting that checks which it is and sets a flag. As it is drawing the screen to large, then it probably means the firmware thinks the device is a Touch 2.

Are you sure it is a Glo HD? I know it seems to be a silly question, but, there have been plenty of people who swear they have one device, but, it turns out to be another. The model name is on the end of the device with the USB port.

Have you powered off? Or a factory reset may solve it. I would do the full factory reset via the Developers option menu or during the startup. And I have sent a PM with the link to the image if you need to use it.
