[Q] TV-Out on the Nexus S?

---

The Galaxy S has TV-out capability via its headphone jack. Is this true of the Nexus S as well? This is a deciding factor for whether or not I buy one. No one has mentioned this

so far I have not read anything about this in the specs...however, I would be very surprised if it is not available (or at the very least be "unlocked)
Google loves puzzles and games. This is evident from their april fools jokes, to more recently the "nexus s challenge"
I can guarantee there will be a whole slew of things that get "opened up/discovered" in the NS. Remember when the N1 came out...now look at it, 720p video, touch focus, fm radio, etc.

After plugging the video out cable into the Nexus S headphone jack, nothing happened. This leads me to believe that it does not support video out in its current state. Perhaps it is there, waiting for some custom firmware magic to wake up

Edit: I also saw no tvout option in the display settings.

I also pluged in a video out cable but didn't get a connection.

anyone success outputing to TV??

maybe by micro USB to HDMI cable??

On the Galaxy S this is something that needs to be enabled.
Following the same pattern the same would be required in the Nexus S.
As someone referred before maybe this is something along like the FM radio on the Nexus one...

I have money 4 anyone who can get this working!

It is not supported on the Nexus S. Not sure why they removed it.

ran out of jacks that support this feature pretty much the same reason why BT 2.1 was used.....

Have got a source for this? I thought that the hardware was there, just a software issue..?

And isn't the mic connection of the 3.5 jack used to run the video?
