I'm not sure if I'm missing a crucial step, or I'm not looking in the right spot, but are there no decent retina lockscreens available for iPad?

If they should work on the ipad, they are not showing on the full screen.

I haven't owned an iDevice for a while, and this is my first iPad. Appreciate any help.

The wallpapers for the iPad with retina display are mostly 2048 x 2048, so that they can accommodate for device orientation. (The wallpaper isn't fixed, it'll also switch from portrait mode to landscape or vice versa.) As the image is a square, it won't fill up the entire screen until you actually set it as your wallpaper.

A nice theme (Lockscreen and main) is 'Laguna HD 2 for iPhone 5' - this also works on the iPad.

You can get it for repetitively low price of nothing from the hackmyiphone repo. (Actually they have heaps of themes there, if that doesn't appeal to you maybe others will?)

Hope that helps or gets you started :)

It's not just this forum,the fact is that there isn't really an iPad Jailbreak community let alone one devoted to Dreamboard themes! If you're interested you can make you own!

This is pretty much true. Especially for the "retina" iPad. iOS 5 was jailbreakable on the iPad 3, however iOS 6 brought Siri to iPad 3 and that was a pretty big deal for most folks (probably much bigger than any jailbreak tweak). So in reality there has only been a mere month for developers to make anything for the retina iPad.

    • I've been using MWB Premium for a number of years so that along with Windows updates and updated browser should be fine. Thanks for that.
    • For some reason I suddenly have the urge to go shopping at Sears.
    • So I did a quick test based on 3+ different public instances from the litany at searx.space ... and it spins everything rather differently. It seems that SearXNG is a meta-search engine (queries multiple search indexes rather than only Google's or Bing's or Wikipedia's or Reddit's) that operates in two modes: > public instances ... each instance opens itself to outside users who piggyback on its cached search history; this instance's own identity becomes known/tracked but end-users are hidden similar to an anonymization proxy; this instance's querying of major search indexes may be API based [rated limited, blocked, etc.]). > private instances ... your private install/instance that itself queries multiple (configurable) search indexes of crawled web content; every major Search Engine associates all traffic to your private instance (so your traffic is tracked via network usages) but client-side tracking (your own browser/computer specs) is flushed because it's a "server" doing the querying rather than your browser. My test asked the same 1 question to the 3+ engines and they all returned vastly different results: some had CAPTCHA failures against Google, some had failures against Wikipedia, and the actual results were also different -- some had auto-complete enabled, others returned a wikipedia highlighted excerpt despite the Wikipedia failure (hinting at results being cached from previous keyword matching), and others just gave an Are-You-Human non-CAPTCHA loop before returning random results. So this begs the caveat: Search query results will vary based on which instance is used because every instance queries the other search indexes separate (and thus its results are influenced on that instance's aggregate search history and index-access limitations). The major distinctions for SearXNG versus DDG or Brave: > The search UI is 'untracked' since no UI trackers are baked-in which would phone home or lay cookies into your browser (for DDG/Brave usage stats), > There is no 'crawler' that canvasses the Internet to discover fresh content (it leaves that to the major search indexes), > Queries multiple search indexes ("meta-search engine") based on the configurations and usage history of the server instance, > Privacy-friendly due to its ability to shield user tracking via standing up a non-local server instance connectable to major VPN providers: queries would all appear to come from general VPN/Proxy providers rather than your private instance (whether installed locally or on your own VPS in the cloud). PS: I've previously come across specialized search engines of this nature that indexes searches across media assets like YT, OF, etc. SearXNG seems to be a good backbone...if the rate-limiting/captcha/etc. issues were resolved.
