The wiring as shown in your pics is needed for the use of a stereo mic, originally used for Gopro. Without the resistor a mic should always be recognized as mono.
I have no specific idea why there is not a bit of a signal, but the first mic that you have listed has a 4-pin plug (even if shipped with an adapter cable), maybe that is one of the reasons for malfunction.
