The phone should be recognized and handled properly by udev (if I am not completely wrong). Try mtp-detect and mtp-connect and see what it reports
The problem is not recognizing the phone. The problem, at least how this conversation began, is TDE does nothing when connecting the phone. KDE 5 and Xfce handle the phone fine. Probably other DEs too, but I haven't looked. Philippe replied that TDE does not have MTP support so that is that.
That said, mtp-detect reports the phone as a OneTouch 5042D rather than A405DL and complains about being unable to initialize because GVFS or KDE MTP is handling the device. On odd message because I am using TDE. I'll have to try later with a fresh reboot.
