GRRRR Apple IOS6
Ok so this is what in my book makes Apple frustrating
IOS6 is out and it doesn't support the IPAD 1 its like their way of saying upgrade ya Tightwad.
Now Microsoft on the other hand, works with everything, yeah ok hardware may need a tweak, but at least they don't force your hand in the upgrade.
poor Ipad 1 feel sad for him.

If it does then in theory you can grab the 5.1.1 software from iclarified and use tiny umbrella to fake apples authentication server and restore 5.1.1
If you cannot do that then you are stuck on 6 as apple does not allow you to downgrade

You could also, if you are quick, grab the 5.1.1 software from iClarified and option click the Restore button, select the downloaded software and see if that works (I'm about to try this, if it fails I'll try TinyUmbrella and worst case go to iOS 6)

I've gone to iOS 6 as I had to restore to unlock my phone and it seemingly didn't do it with the iOS 5.1.1 restore, but with the 6.0 restore I saw the unlock screen.

For work use, there are occasions when people borrow devices and even though strict instructions are given not to update them, they come back upgraded to a new OS and then a sheepish "Sorry about that" is given, which doesn't help as unless I have the blobs I cannot put the device back down to the OS it was running. The reason is that we need to maintain compatibility with certain OS versions, and Apple provides no official way for developers to downgrade their OS, which would be so useful.

Is anyone else getting freezes and lags with IO6 ?
Granted i'm just on the 3GS at the min and the processor aint as quick but i wasn't having any prob on IO5, on boot up when it reaches the slider screen i have to wait forever to move the slider to get to the desktop as its just freezes. Also ive had lockups whilst web browsing whilst the page just freezes and hangs.
I was planning to buy the iphone5 but i aint impressed enough with it to part with around £500 as i'm on a SIM only deal which i prefer as its a very good deal i have.
Any way of going back to IO5 ?

This just proves the arrogance of Apple putting their own App in place of the google one when it is obvious even to someone with Apple rose tinted glasses that it is an inferior Application (even tho they would never admit it, they know, they just know )
P.S. Has anyone been to Dunnie Races lately ??

As for going back to iOS 5, read my posts earlier in this thread. Key thing, get in quick! I'd suggest getting Tiny Umbrella doing it's thing asap.

http://maps.google.com nothing was taken away, Google didn't get closed down.
Apple have replaced the default map app with something inferior.

Just done a restore in itunes, lost all my contacts Not sure what happened with that as each time i logged into itunes it did a sync.
Its still the same, when the desktop appears i can't move the slider for a good 20-25 seconds after the desktop has appeared. Also it takes a lot longer to boot up, the apple logo stays on screen for quite a while.
Also, has anyone noticed that the battery indicator doesn't have the % thats remaining anymore ?

As for battery indicator, check here:

I'm looking forward to updates, I enjoyed fresh content on Google Earth and I'll do the same with iOS Maps, maybe one day the ***** will return.
