You might try 2 of the above adapters(1 for the phone and 1 for the charger coming out the side). maybe there is a mini usb to micro y cable.
Also, I tried a cable through the 3.5mm jack with no luck.
I am just not sure if tv out is functional straight out of the box. I use appbrain on the incredible for downloading apps and when I go to manage my apps>>>tv out>>>said "this app is not executable"

TvOut app doesn't work until you connect a video cable via the microUSB
this is the same app that runs on the Windows Mobile HTC devices, except this is for Android, you don't have to run the app to get it to work either
when you connect the video cable it will ask you NTSC or PAL etc and then theres settings that you can choose from you can choose Auto, Portrait or Landscape.
and like i said guys, if you look at the miniUSB port on the adapters all over this thread, it will not work, try connecting your extUSB cables into these ports on a PS3 controller or a digital camera with the miniUSB port
the only way we can get this to work (hopefully) is to get
a miniUSB tv out cable and a microUSB to miniUSB adapter
but even then i don't think it will work since the pinouts are a little different on miniUSB
<<Thats extUSB (many times called miniUSB but its not)
<<MiniUSB pinout only has 5 pins while extUSB has 11
and does this one look familiar?
try using a miniUSB charger on a miniUSB connection on a PS3 controller or a HTC device, it won't charge unless its made for it or the pinouts are correct.
so this will involve trial and error, for those that are willing to try it for all of us
does that clarify things a little better?
edit: extUSB is the port that HTC uses on there phones/HTC TV out cables also use this, miniUSB will connect to the phone, but not the extUSB cable to a miniUSB port
