Alright, So my headphones finally gave out recently and I replaced them with Skullcandy Heavy Medals. They work fine on my computer, but my phone (Xperia Play) has a different pinout and it just tells me the accessory is not supported. If I hold in the control button when plugging it in, it works fine until I let go. Then it sounds like the left and right channels are invertedly combined (messy audio, including minimal vocals from stereo, and nothing from mono). So I do a bit of research and find an adapter from MEElectronics which is supposed to take Apple-standard devices (my headphones were designed for the iPhone) and change it to another format that was listed as working on the Xperia Play. Now with the adapter it works fine if the control is held but recognizes the device as being disconnected most of the time that the control is released (randomly it won't seem to notice the release and will continue to work fine). Does anyone know more about this kind of thing? Or have any ideas other than taping down the controller? If it helps I don't care about the mic or controller being functional, they just came standard with the headphones.
