How does one put android software onto an iPad...don't think that is possible. Maybe he did a jail break on the iPad?

Hi and welcome to the Forum!

I've never heard of this either but I'm moved your thread to our Hacking section where you will get a better response.

Good luck!

To be honest, I've never heard of such a thing as getting Android to run on an iPad - so there's not much I can offer.

Except - have you tried to put the iPad into DFU mode and see if iTunes can restore an iOS to the iPad (iOS 6.0.1)? See this link for putting the iPad into DFU mode: http://www.ipadforums.net/ipad-hacking/27489-dfu-mode-dummies.html

Do this process with [the latest version of] iTunes closed. Then, open iTunes and, hopefully, it will recognize the iPad as in recovery and needing a restore.

that's about all I can think of. Maybe someone else will come along with another idea. Good luck.
