Same problem on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS with all updates and Samsung Galaxy S8. Why did Google have to implement MTP instead of good old fashioned media access over USB like we used to have ? The good old days where the storage would show up just like a USB stick ? What is the benefit of MTP ?:-(

I have used MTP on 16.04 without problems, but on 18.04 it does not work. When I connect my Android devices (Samsung A5 and Samsung J3) and I try to list directories with many files (e.g. /DCIM/Camera) the window hangs until I disconnect the device. Same issue if I try to post the command "ls /var/run/1000/gvfs/<MTP-FOLDER>". I have installed Ubuntu 18.04 on two different machines - an older HP laptop and a recent DELL laptop - and the issue is present on the all of them. I suspect a defect on the "libmtp". I tried many alternative solutions suggested by the net (e.g. jmtpfs and so on) but anyone worked. That's all!
