And plugged in this cable from a DVD player I had - see picture #2.
The phone plays the audio but not the video and doesn't open the TV Out program like it does when I plugin my Canon camera cable (which doesn't work either, but at least I know that TV Out is on the rom - scroslers 2.0 rom for VZW). I tried all combinations and know that the red and white are left and right audio becuase I can hear it as I plug them in.
Do you think it is the adapter or the cable? Any ideas? Help please! ... Thanks. I'd hate to have to start over from scratch.

If the TV Out doesn't come up when you insert the adapter - then it's definitely the adapter that's to blame. I got it to work - and may be the only one I've heard of sadly. The pics of my results are on post 57 of the following thread:

I broke pin 4, and didn't take the casing off as you've done. The problem MIGHT be that the color coding is different than what was used in the adapter that comes from the touch pro. Have you confirmed that the blue cable connects to pin 4?
Otherwise, the Idiot and Dr g were unable to get the adapter to work just by breaking pin 4. If you break pin 4 (or cut the right cable) you should get the tv out screen to pop up even BEFORE you attach the camcorder cable. So the camcorder cable is not the problem YET. You have to get the adapter to work right first before testing the cable.
