My sister has a iPad 1 with iOS 5.1 and I want to put it back to iOS 4. Has anyone Jail broken the iPad 1 to go back to iOS 4.
The reason is in photos you lose ability to turn photos if you update the iPad 1 to iOS 5

Any help please?

Thanks,

Kev.

You can do it as long as you have your SHSH saved. Use Tiny Umbrella and it works great. Also, once you downgrade to ios4, you will not be able to restore from a backup that had 5 on it.

From what i am reading though, your iPad has never been jailbroken, so I am guessing that it isn't going to work.

K thanks Bowserm, After updating to iOS 5 you cannot turn photos. When your showing pictures if one is sideways there was a little arrow on the top to turn the picture, its gone in the iPad 1 with iOS 5 installed.

You can do it with gestures instead.

Okay your right but it does not stay, so when you do a slide show its sideways again.

I have iOS 5.1 (iPad 2), functionality should be the same on the iPad 1 hardware.

Functionality is not the same from iPad 1 to the iPad 2! The iPad 1 loses the turn arrow and edit button, the iPad 2 does not lose these functions, when both are updated to iOS 5.1

Sh*t, you're right! I didn't know... Gestures are supposed to stick, don't know why they are not. Get the Photo Rotate app??

tried that but it takes the photo out of order that i have them, it always dumps the photo to the end. I have over a 1000 photos and there all in order as per holiday. with iOS 4 it was easy to just rotate the pic. when showing to my friends now i have rotate the iPad to see pic. . Its like Apple took a step backwards with the iPad 1 and iOS 5
