I recall there were some applications for non-smartphone mobile phones called KMobile and Kandy, but I don't know if they are compatible with KaiOS devices.
If the phone supports MTP, then you can just use GMTP (I don't think TDE has MTP protocol support yet). Otherwise, it might be that the phone can function like a standard USB mass storage device and the TDE Hardware library just doesn't recognize that. That still happens to me when I connect an MP4 player device to the PC, so I have to mount it manually.

I have a flip phone that is recognized immediately (lsusb) but does not appear anywhere in TDE that I can see.

The phone is an Alcatel A405DL running KaiOS 2.5.
