Did you try this as written in post #712 above?
NOTE: If there is no picture on the TV after connecting the device, change the RED plug to Video input, (Instead of standard colour coding) That will work.

Please try and let us know if it works!! :)

I checked it ...I can hear the sound from the tv speakers but no video....any other suggessions

Which cable did you use? Try getting cable of N97 or N5800xm from your friend and try it again.

In "HowardForums" i read this message.
I tried to play a recorded widescreen video on my 40" Samsung HiDef LCD but all I got was distortion. Yes, I change from PAL to NTSC. No difference. Music out and TV-Out (not playing vids) DOES, however, work. Just no video.

---- EDIT 22nd June 2010 --

I had purchased NOKIA 5800 XM in April 2010.
The box had manufacturing date as Feb 2010.
The pack did NOT had TV cable.

I had a cable with Stereo pin on one side and AV out on the other (cheap unbranded cable bought for Rs. 30 around 10 years back which I used for listening to walkman music on TV).

I attached stereo pin (partially) in nokia 5800 and TV out Red pin in white slot of TV and White pin in Red slot of TV.

TV out is working with no problem.

The feature is NOT removed, TV out is working.

Cmon man stop trolling the forums with wrong info.
I have both 5800's old and new one. I even tried with the bundled Nokia tv out cable and checked it new phone. No TV out what-so-ever, you get only audio.

In which planet did you manage to get video signal out ,other than Yellow port ???

All you do is get those irrelevant info from several forums. Have you tried it yourself???? Then we'll talk.

First you spam spica thread with wrong info and now here WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lets finish this once and for all ppl ...

Nokia 5800XM manufactured in India from September 2009 do not have the TV Out Feature ... By this, I mean the hardware has been removed ... By flashing a different PC firmware, it might be possible to get the TV-Out Option as popup but there is no way you will get Video Output from it ... With a standard Nokia cable or any other ... there is no point even trying ... the only thing u will get is audio ...

It seems a new version is great as you've mentioned! What are the new features of this v 50.0.005? Is it really improved the Camera quality etc etc? If so, I will go there!!

In jan I updated firmware to V41. Loving it..

But after update my Nokia maps were deleted i downloaded the OVI maps software but to download maps i have to connect it to a system. the main problem is i have a MTNL connection and it breaks after every 15-20 mins is there any way i can download those maps on some storage media and later transfer it to my cell.:?: As i can use my ofc internet to download but USB ports on OFC systems are locked.

V50 rocks ... Well, as long as the 5800 does brisk business for nokia, they will continue providing us these updates ... the funny thing here is tat nobody even realized that an update was due until it leaked a few days ago on Navifarm ...

Considering C6 has a widget based HS (although its not Nseries), i hope the next update (if any) might give us the HS we've all been waiting for :) .... nothing wrong in hoping

To Hard reset, turn off the fone , press and hold the RED + GREEN + CAMERA key and then power on the device ... And keep holding the 4 keys (including power key) till you get the device boots up and you get the Select Country menu ...

You will retain v50
