That would be John. The trouble I have run into with phones is that the 4 wire connector for audio and mic requires some components in the cable to make the phone think it's working with a headset. My guess is, each phone tests the resistance to see if a MIC or headphone is there. Not sure but

handy, check the outer two connection pins where the FTDI would plug in. Is it 5V? If not, it may be the cable. Another test would be to plug a USB flash drive into that cable and see if it powers up. If not then it's definitely a cable issue. Kurt On Friday, February 12, 2016 7:40 AM,
