If you are in compatibility mode, it is obvious because your entire UI is
scaled up using bitmap scaling.

If you aren't sure, don't say you support xlarge screens, and use the button
at the bottom to switch between compatibility and normal modes.

By default unless you explicitly say you don't support large screens, you
will *not* be run in compatibility mode but the button will be available for
the user to switch compatibility mode on.

I don't think your issue is related to compatibility mode, but there isn't
enough  information provided to help diagnose further.
