You’ll need a few things and some patience before you get started, but it’s really not that hard to get this setup and working.</p> <p>Here are the requirements:</p> <ul> <li>Apple VGA Adapter or Apple Digital AV Adapter for mirroring</li> <li><a href="http://osxdaily.com/2011/03/25/ios-4-3-1-download/">iOS 4.3.1</a> installed on the iPad or iPhone</li> <li>Jailbroken iPhone or iPad 1: You can use <a href="http://osxdaily.com/2011/04/03/redsn0w-0-9-6rc9-download/">redsn0w 0.9.6rc9</a> or <a href="http://osxdaily.com/2011/04/03/pwnagetool-4-3-download/">PwnageTool 4.3</a>. If you aren’t sure what to do, follow our <a href="http://osxdaily.com/2011/04/03/jailbreak-ios-4-3-1-with-redsn0w-0-9-6rc9/">guide to jailbreak iOS 4.3.1 with redsn0w</a>.</li> <li>CyberDuck or another SFTP client</li> </ul> <p>Assuming you are now jailbroken, you must SSH into your iPad or iPhone (using the SFTP client) and locate the following directory: <span id="more-14595"></span> <code>/system/library/coreservices/springboard.app/</code></p> <p>Within this directory, look for the following files: “K48AP.plist” for iPad, or “N90AP.plist” for iPhone 4</p> <p>Open the appropriate file in a <a href="http://osxdaily.com/2010/05/12/use-property-list-editor-to-edit-plist-files-for-free/">plist editor</a> (requires Xcode) and add the following key, type, and value as seen in the screenshot below: display-mirroring boolean YES</p> <p><img src="http://osxdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/video-mirorring-ipad-iphone1.jpg" alt="" title="video-mirorring-ipad-iphone" width="620" height="392" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14597" /></p> <p>Save the plist file and upload back to the iPhone or iPad, then restart the device.</p> <p>Now just plug in the AV cable and start mirroring!</p> <p><img src="http://osxdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/iphone-video-mirroring.jpg" alt="" title="iphone-video-mirroring" width="620" height="421" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14599" /></p> <p>This might even work with the iPhone 3GS and iPod touches but I can’t verify either.</p> <p>This hack and pictures come from <a href="http://www.natureseyestudios.be/blog/enable-display-mirroring-on-first-gen-ipad/">NatureEyeStudios</a> via <a href="http://www.macgasm.net/2011/04/04/jailbroken-ipad-1-video-mirroring-hack/">MacGasm</a>, what a great find!</p> </div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/dpq0iN2J3ouYsXu2T4-x5pIA718/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/dpq0iN2J3ouYsXu2T4-x5pIA718/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/dpq0iN2J3ouYsXu2T4-x5pIA718/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/dpq0iN2J3ouYsXu2T4-x5pIA718/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=yWmNE856oZo:cyiyM01-bpc:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=yWmNE856oZo:cyiyM01-bpc:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?i=yWmNE856oZo:cyiyM01-bpc:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=yWmNE856oZo:cyiyM01-bpc:D7DqB2pKExk"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?i=yWmNE856oZo:cyiyM01-bpc:D7DqB2pKExk" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=yWmNE856oZo:cyiyM01-bpc:7Q72WNTAKBA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=7Q72WNTAKBA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=yWmNE856oZo:cyiyM01-bpc:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/osxdaily/~4/yWmNE856oZo" height="1" width="1"/> View the full article
