Using Krusader 1.90.0 in TDE 14.0.1, trying to access the file system in my LG-P716 phone. But it doesn't appear in Krusader's dropdown media list. Or under /media/. For the phone's USB connection type I try Media sync (MTP) or Camera (PTP), both without success. Installed kio-mtp and associated KDE4 files but still no go. Any ideas? -R
Hi,
Me too I have an LG smartphone. It looks like they didn't allowed the option to use it as a ''USB mass storage'' at all, but only functions such as digital camera file transfer and 3G modem. The ''USB mass storage'' is a kind-of generic driver used by usb keys and usb hdd, but if you don't have this, you can't do much, especially if there is no replacement Android firmware available for your phone.
As of now, I simply pop out the microsd and use a card reader on my computer to transfer files. Or you can use email, dropbox or any other ''cloud'' means to transfer files.
Hope it helps! -Alexandre
Thanks for the reply. PCManFM, aka Caja (on my Mint base system), *does* work, for both read and write. Both Konqueror and Dolphin don't. So far mc doesn't either, but perhaps it can be set to see the camera as an external file system. Gphoto2 can see and query the camera; maybe I'll play with it. For now I can use PCManFM. -R
