Q: I wonder if this would power my new dash cam. The old one was a mini but the new one uses a micro plug.

This cable will provide power however there is no way I can tell you if it will work with your dash cam.

Q: Are all 5 pins connected between the cable ends? I need the cable to be FULLY functional, not just for charging.

This adapter cable is a standard USB 2.0 sync/charge cable. It has 4 wires as per the USB 2.0 specification. Pin 1 = 5V (Power), Pin 2 = Data -, Pin 3 = Data +, Pin 4 = ID (not used), Pin 5 = Ground. Pin 4 is used for OTG cables and even then it is only shorted to Pin 5. If a cable uses 5 wires across all 5 pins then it is not a USB cable (even if it uses USB connectors). It will most likely be an MHL cable or a proprietary cable for a GPS unit or digital camera.

Q: Does/Can this work for adapting a microphone?

This is a basic cable that converts a micro USB to a mini USB connection. If your microphone has these one of the ends, then should work. Keep in mind this has a male micro USB and female mini USB end on it. So check your microphone plug.

Q: Im planning to buy this for my action cam and I need to know if it works with converting audio off the mic

This cable works like any other USB cable. So if your equipment can handle an USB cable, it can be used for that.
