Help Skull Candy Compatability

I recently purchased some Skull Candy Heavy Medals with the built in controller for volume, pause, mic, etc. The salesman failed to mention that these wouldn't work with my Gen 3 iPod or my Droid X2. I took them back, but all they offered was store credit which was worthless to me. The guy there today did mention an app that would allow me to use the controls on these ear buds, but of course by the time I was out of the mall, I had forgot what he said the name of the app was. Tried doing some searching through the market, and the closest I could find was "Headset Button Controller". Downloaded the trial version, but can't get it to work still.

Anybody else in the same boat, had the same problem, offer up an app that will get these working on my Droid X2?

Thanks in advance for any help.
 
why would store credit be worthless to you? can't you just get some skull candy's without the inline mic?
 
My next choice in ear buds are $30 cheaper and this is a phone accessories store, so I would left with $30 that I have nothing to spend it on.
 
I posted this a while back in April, but no one replied, so I don't know if it is a good app or not. The Market page says it is compatible with Android 2.1 and 2.2. It may not work with the 2.3.

It may not offer all of the functions you are looking for, either.

It's a free app so you can't lose by checking it out.

I guess you could try droid shuffle. I've never used it, but it's supposed to control headsets with the controls on the cord.
