ExtUSB Audio Adapter Analysis - Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories

Before someone tells me to search again, please read my whole post: I don't think there's a conclusive analysis.
I love my FUZE, and while I don't own an iPhone headset, I have occasionally used my mom's iPhone headset with the HTC dongle that comes with the Fuze.
Also, over the summer, I bought some great replacement Sennheiser earbuds that are designed to work with the iPhone. (They're 3.5 mm tri-ring so they work with any 3.5 mm stereo out device)
Now that I chose the FUZE, I want the Mic from my iPhone and Sennheiser iPhone headsets to work with the FUZE. But, I don't want to use the clunky adapter.
I know Brando and Expansys have adapters available, but can anyone confirm that they work with the Mic on stereo headsets? Thy must be tri-ring (some people call this tri-pole, but I think that's less easy to understand) and it's difficult to confirm with people that such setups are working.
Also, I was wondering if there's a good adapter for mono 2.5 mm wired headsets.

Update
I've scoured the city and the only 3.5 mm headphone adapter is the one that came with the AT&T Fuze. I tried AT&T, Sprint, Verizon, and T-Mobile stores, since all 4 carriers sell HTC devices and should conceivably carry an adapter.
I've bought one online in the meantime, but I spoke to a guy who owned his own cell phone shop and had my phone. He said NONE of the adapters work with the iPhone stereo headset!
Someone should make one, or post a simple guide on how to mod one.
I will note that a Verizon guy was nice enough to give me a 2.5 mm headset/USB combo dongle, but this too is kind of ghetto! Another Verizon guy said he had an extra HTC headset at home that he could give me, and the guy who owned his own shop said he could sell me the HTC headset.
As it stands, if I want to use my own headset I have to use either a Y-dongle or a brick-dongle! Not cool....

I can confirm the following does *not* work with iPhone-designed headphones with mic:

I too would like to use an extUSB to 3.5mm adapter with a headset with mic, rather than an adapter with a mic and having to search for a headphone with short cords. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have a T-Mobile G1 with the extUSB connector and I'm also looking for an adapter that allows me to connect iPhone/BlackBerry-style headsets with 3.5mm tri-ring (also called TRRS) connectors. This thread is the only one I could found on the Internet that talks about such a thing. Every extUSB to 3.5mm adapter I could found either lacks microphone support with only a 2-ring connector, or has a microphone built-in but still only has a 2-ring connector. It's been almost a year since this thread was started, but has there been any luck by anyone out there of finding such an adapter? I really don't have the skills to solder my own.

Did anybody try the extUSB with built-in microphone? I would like to be able to use it with some headset I own.
But... Is the microphone so crapy as I think?

Have you tried DIY? Here are some info for the pinout here, here, here.

Another one here

Here is JUST the 3.5mm adapter, haven't used it, but they say it's spose to work.

RAM and Other Upgrades on Sprint Mogul

It's good to have found this group
As a new user or about to be one, I have a need for an internet phone that runs Mobile 5/6. After much research, I've landed on the Sprint Mogul. I'll be using it mostly for email, surfing the net, and streaming internet radio via Live365's new Windows Mobile 6 application. Basically, I need to stay connected to my business while away from my laptop.
Before I make my purchase tomorrow, I'm concerned about the RAM. I think the Mogul comes with 128k RAM and is upgradeable to 2MB. Am I correct about this, and if so, should I get the upgrade immediately?
Also, can I use external stereo headphones that have a 1/8 stereo phono plug with the headset USB adapter bundled with the phone?
Is there any other upgrades I should be concerned about as a new user?
I'll be using the phone mostly in NYC. Many thanks in advance.

The Mogul/PPC6800/P4000 comes with 64mb Ram/256mb Rom and is (atthis point) non-upgradeable. It has a slot that holds a MicroSD card which can fit up to 4GB stock; 6GB on up with a specific .cab file.
The stock headphones have a mini-usb connector. You will have to purchase a mini-usb to 1/8 phono plug to use those headphones.
As far as upgrades... Welcome.
Read ALOT. There is much here in the way of software & hardware upgrades. The general forum has accessories & software development threads which can benefit many applications & devices.
Thanks xweaponx for the quick response and advice.

Can I pick up one of these at the local radioshack or is this something I need to special order somewhere else?

Yes. You can pick up an adapter at Radio-Shack or Wal-Mart. Pretty much any place that carries audio products or headphones.

I'm sorry I'll have to disagree with you here... Maybe it's because of my area, But I was unable to find any retailers that had even heard of a Mini-usb / Headphone jack. They ALL looked at me like I was speaking Greek in China.
I had to order mine on-line from Moguldepot.com It was about $16.00 after shipping. Kinda expensive for a simple adapter if you ask me, but worth it since no one had even heard of it.
the mogul includes a Mini-USB to a 2.5mm Phono plug adapter... so you could have gotten a 2.5mm to 3.5mm standard adapter as well.

Jawbone and the Tilt

I am thinking about purchasing the Jawbone headset. Please post your thoughts on your usage of Jawbone and the ATT Tilt.
You might want to go to the tilt (aka Kaiser) accessory forums.
This is the best headset I had so far. I've owned 3 different Motorola units, H700, HS850, HS810, and Jabra bt250. It has the best fit. Snug and comfortable. Hearing quality has been as well. Same quality pertains to the party on the other line. Buddy of mine purchased on a few weeks ago. Agrees this has been the best one so far.
Hope it helps.

Anyone know of a good (not $30) SlimPort Video Out cable?

I'm getting this phone today, and I hear it does NOT support MHL, which is not awesome because I have like 4 MHL adapters laying around. So I guess I need a "Slimport" out adapter, but they are coming up at $30 each. Anyone have a recommend on one that does not cost that much, or if they all do, any recommendations on the "best" one that does not cut out etc..?
they're all $30.. its the standard price http://www.amazon.com/SlimPort®-SP1...=UTF8&qid=1363706599&sr=1-1&keywords=Slimport

Earphone Headset Adapter USB C AUX Audio Cable

Hello, is there a compatible Earphone Headset Adapter USB C AUX Audio Cable?
It's impossibile to find original.
Thanks
I got four of the official Samsung adapter. Works great and gets frequent OTA firmware updates. I got them very quickly with my preorder Samsung bucks. Also got the Galaxy Buds free that way, so I haven't had to use wired headphones much.

On Amazon I have bought one with Realtek ALC4042, the last chipset( I don't know, how to verify, if there is inside this chipset?!?) and it's works with any headset, but with microphone inside original Samsung earphone it doesn't. Then with any 4 contact jack I think that it doesn't work, I will return it.
Now I have bought one original from Samsung site and I will try it.
