There are two completely incompatible ways that a 4 pole 3.5 mm TRRS
jack can be used to carry combined headphone and microphone wiring.

Starting from the tip end it could be:

left, right, common ground, microphone (CTIA/Apple/most Android)

Or:

left, right, microphone, common ground (OMTP/Nokia/some Android/Sony)

Headsets with the opposite type needed for the socket might actually
get working audio in the earpieces, but not the microphone.

Since you're using an adaptor lead, you may have the opposite kind from
what you need.  If you can work out which one you have, try getting the
opposite.  If you can't work out what you have, you have two choices: 
Get someone else to determine it, or buy a pair of new adaptor leads
(one of each type).  But I'd suggest you try taking what you already
have (headset and and adaptors) to a mobile phone shop, or computer
shop, and see if they can help you.
