New ipad user with some ???'s

Hello all. I recently got a wifi ipad model as a gift. It's running 4.2.1 and I recently have someone "tethered jailbreak" it for me. How do I......

1) Change the "iPad" text on the top left of the screen? And is there a place where I can download some?

2) I notice the ipad doesn't have a clock and weather icon as I have seen on some iphones. Do I have to install it myself and how?

3) How do I get the dock on the bottom to be transparent?


Thanks so much for any help.

Hard to answer since it's jailbroken....

Basically the answer to all of your questions is either no or none that I am aware of.

Maybe someone will chime in for you. I figured I would give you what I know and keep this on the active topics list for awhile.

As for Weather apps for your iPad, I use Weather HD. Search it in the App Store. It's a fantastic app with beautiful HD videos playing in the background according to Real-Time weather in your area. You can even display a clock in 3 different sizes, killing 2 birds with one stone, in your case.

I use weather HD as well. Great app. However, to my knowledge, there is no way to make the dock transparent at this time, nor is there a way to change the text. If someone can clarify this, then I would more than gladly step aside :D

For the Error 3014, try reinstalling both iTunes and downloading your iOS again. Restore through iTunes and DON'T download the 4.2.1 IPSW elsewhere for the restore.

See if that helps.

I know you are desperate, and we want to help, but please don't hijack all the threads asking the same question. I have answered this for you in the main thread which you stated on the subject.
