When Apple introduced the iPad 2, one of the more notable features or enhancements was the ability to output video to a HD TV via a special HDMI adapter that also doubles a s a VGA adapter, too. The only downside to that was the fact the iPad 1 didn’t have that native ability to do so, however, Nature’s Eye Studios has found a very simple solution this problem. See the how to below for more details.

1. SSH into your iPad (it has to be jailbroken and have OpenSSH installed) and go to: system/library/coreservices/springboard.app/
2. Download the K48AP.plist file to your Mac and open in Xcode (or some other .plist editor).
3. Add the following line after “device-name String iPad”:

display-mirroring boolean YES

4. Save the file and then upload it to your iPad.
5. Restart your iPad and test out the video mirroring!

Enjoy!
