Thunar (in epel, package name with a capital "T") automatically detects and accesses MTP devices. It's designed for the XFCE desktop but I don't see a reason why it shouldn't work in KDE as well, it will just pull a few of the XFCE libraries when you install it.

Unfortunately this is not possible with the version > of KDE shipping with CentOS 7. I'm not sure about a GUI file browser, but using simple-mtpfs works fine for me. With sudo, plug the phone in, and then simple-mtpfs /mnt (assuming nothing else is under /mnt), causes a message to appear on the phone, do I wish to allow it, I tap allow, then run the command again, and the phone's files appear under mount. It's not something I do too often, so I don't bother with a directory special directory to mount the phone or worry about getting it done as normal user, but simple-mtpfs works well for my limited needs. -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] Accessing Android phones on CentOS 7
Hi, My standard Linux desktop is based on a personal blend of CentOS 7 with KDE 4.14 and various add-ons from third-party repositories like EPEL and Nux-Dextop. After a brief stint on OpenSUSE Leap 15.0, this is what I use on my workstation and on my laptop. And this is also what I install on my client's machines, just like I did in our local school's computer room. I'm currently busy sanding down a few remaining edges, and one thing that's left is accessing Android phones. On less conservative distros based on KDE Plasma 5, this is a no-brainer, since all you have to do is plug in the phone and then browse its content using Dolphin or some other file manager. Unfortunately this is not possible with the version of KDE shipping with CentOS 7. Any ideas for that?
