Hello
Working down your list then...

Assuming your 2nd figure is at raised revs? then that seems OK.
Have you considered taking it for a run with an assistant and see what figures are shown then? If no assistant, I think there is a live data record facility in Vida

.
Yes, dosing does take place when the system recognises fuel was added. There will be a manual activation but for now you could just monitor the level via Vida to confirm pump is work...arguably the fact it was empty suggests its fine.

Seems fine so no action needed. Likely that the registering of a new DPF also zero'd the soot levels.

I am of the opinion that MAF's do wear out, so it could be ready for cleaning or replacing. They don't usually trigger EML's and if you unplug it then start the car, the system will register such a code but no EML as the system will revert to some baseline settings to keep running. You could in fact unplug it and take it for a run and see if your symptoms still persist.
Are they the only DTC's ?

Bank one is upstream of the DPF. If you can afford it change it as it was running in the same conditions as the old DPF. If your car is out of date for the software updates, the advice from 'Clan' is key here though. New sensors may work best with updated software.
Bank 2 is downstream of the DPF and reports conditions after filtration, such as if soot is getting past, ie cracked DPF from too many/wrongly applied forced regens. You tend to get soot in the rear tail pipe when that happens.
Out of interest, why did you change the DPF?
