Mic in to android (milestone to be exact)

A little background of my problem:
I work with the sound control at my church. We have a distribution amp that we come out of an output on and run into a phone interface and send the service out thru a conference call so those who can't make it to church can listen to service at home. We are haveing problems with this system and feel it is the the phone providers fault. We can get no volume and I know quite a few churches that it works for.

So, I wanted to "mic in" to my milestone and call out thru this and see if it would be any better. Eventually, if this would work, I would like to get internet there and call out through an IP phone service. I got a 4 conductor 3.5mm cable, hacked it, found the mic wire, and wired it into the distribution amp, plugged it into jack on phone and called it direct. It recognized it as a mic because it shut the internal mic on phone off. But, it would spontaneously mute the line and unmute it. When unmuted I got the sound but it was not very clear. Any ideas what I should do? Why would it be muting the phone?
 
Ok, figured something out. Android jumped into the market and tried to reinvent the wheel. It looks to me like the standard 4 conductor 3.5mm is set up with the top conductor being the mic and the 2nd down is the ground. Android switched that around.....
