If you have a Hatis Freedom Mach (single or dual), can you measure the length (not the diameter) of the plug? I think it is too short. I brought a LG VX 9900 cellphone and my 8+ years old Hatis Freedom Mach II plug does not work, but my sister's plug works. Unfortunately my plug...

In my church, there is plan to provide captioning in the west wing of the sanctuary (on the side). However, I like to sit in front of the stage so that i can lip-read the sermon, annoucements, worship, etc. [If I'm on the side, I probably pick up the sermon more, but will be lost for...
