I have my op3t in the way this will be my first and only USB c device. My question is will any of my old micro USBs work to charge the phone? I get it will not fast charge but can they work at all? Thank you

Yes, but you need an adapter with a 56k ohm pull-up resistor I believe, such as this:

I use a few of them
Edit: I trust the Tronsmart brand, but if you desire to go with an Anker brand, here is this:

But a brand new USB-C cable costs less than the Micro->USB-C adapter itself?It probably does, but he has other spare cords that are micro usb.

I just got a 3T and have been going through the same thing. I'd actually bought a set of adapters months ago in anticipation of the Pixel I ended up not getting. They were 2 for $8.99. They are tiny and I'll probably lose them pretty quickly. Then I found some more at 4 for $4.99 that come with a little chain leash so you can attach them to your micro usb cable. I've also bought two usb-c cables, one for $4.99 and one for $6.99. So yes, the adapters are less expensive that the cables assuming you don't misplace them. (My $6.99 cable is bright red; I got that for work because it'd be more obvious if it was "borrowed").

FYI: I use the Tronsmart adapters, when i got my Moto Z Force Droid. Now all those micro usb cords won't go to waste.

I'm lurking in this forum because i'm thinking of getting a OnePlus 3T, or maybe a 4 when it comes out. I don't like Verizon, and i want to move on to T-Mobile. Just wondering if anyone with the 3T uses it on T-Mo.
