Step 5 wrong! The Mic is the red&green cable and the gold cable doesn't exist in my earpods. There is a 6th cord however which is a nylon like support cord.
The gold wire is hidden inside the red-green wire. Unwind the red-green to find it. The gold is the mic, the red-green is the mic ground. If you use the original jack (cut away the moulded on white plastic) you can use a multimeter to find the mic connection which is on the other side of the ground connection. Thanks for the page. Good luck

I recycled the same factory jack and identified the poles with a multimeter. I followed the same instructions. Their volume is lower than usual. Thanks for the page.
This article was pretty useful for me. Great thanks to the author and also people who commented here.
