Depends on the phone, but newer devices these days generally do not present
a mass storage device. They instead expose storage at file level via MTP
(Media Transfer Protocol), as block storage access requires exclusive lock
on partition, and that means background processes using the storage on the
phone must be halted and/or may crash.

Check your manufacturer's instructions.
