Description Kristopher 2014-10-02 21:59:55 CDT
The Media Transport Protocol is becoming more and more common, even recent versions of Android OS require it or PTP (Picture Transport Protocol) rather than the standard MSC (Mass Storage Class), thus it may be a good idea to add support to Konqueror and Dolphin. In addition, I'd suggest looking at Google's code as they include some "MTP extensions" in Android OS to get around some of the limitations of MTP (both the host and the device being connected to must support the extensions).

Android OS's MTP code can be found at:

I will need to try it again, but I'm pretty sure that my Samsung Galaxy S2 is recognized as MTP device when I plug it in TDE 3.5.13.2 , and I can browse it in konqueror.

Note: I can also switch the phone to usb-mass-storage, but I'm sure it also works in default, MTP mode.

MTP does not work for me on R14 using Konqueror with my Android tablet, however AFAIK it will work in Amarok since it already supports MTP via libmtp.

Also, just because older Androids support MSC does not mean newer Androids do: Google removed MSC support in recent versions of Android in favor of MTP, which allows them to exclusively use F\OSS filesystems without losing support for proprietary operating systems and also freeing them from possible lawsuit from Microsoft just for using FAT/NTFS.

I can see my Sailfish X (Sony Xperia X) in R14.1, but it is not recognized and I can not unmount it

I think this is udev issue, but not sure.

So IMO this issue is not exactly confirmed, or could be obsolete.
