I use this adapter to use a Sony MH1-BL helmet on other objects that a Sony Ericsson phone. Unsurprisingly, he does what he is asked, namely reverse micro and sheets, and allows the use of this type of OMTP headset with CTIA devices. Also allowed me to use the microphone and part of the headphone controls on my iPhone 5 for calls and music. Its connectivity "right" may also allow the use of headphones or earphones with mouthpieces "stuck" with some devices.
