Headphone adapter to use Ming with standard 1/8" ear bu

[highstone]

Has anyone figured out how to use standard ear buds with a 1/8" stereo connector with the Ming? I bought an adapter at Radio Shack that is the right size plug/jack, but only get one channel of audio when using Realplayer.
Thanks

That adapter from Radioshack won't work, I got that one too and experience the same thing your experiencing. You need to get this adapter.

Yes, this should work for converting just adapting the audio to any mini headphone, but what about the microphone and answer button? If you use this adpater, then you can't answer the phone and have a conversation without unplugging the adapter.

There as some adapters on the market that export microphone/ answer/hang-up button capability as well. I purchased this one from Verizon, but only the stero audio and mic works, and not the answer button with the A1200:

Apparently the answer button is compatible with the LG Chocolate. I like the design because the plug fits right into the answer button, but since the answer button doesn't work with the A1200, I'll probably return it.

Here are some other ones, including the Seido version that supposedly works with the Motorola Q:

Another adapter with mic/answer for Nokia phones

Yet another with mic/answer for pocket pc

Has anyone else used any othe these (or others) that work correctly (i.e. sterio, mic, and answer button all functioning) with the A1200?
