[Desktop-packages] [Bug 903422] Re: Mount / Provide access to Android 4 (Ice Cream Sandwich, ICS) MTP devices
We'd need to add a udev rule to allow users to access these devices. I figure we don't want to collect a whole lot of vendor/product IDs, is there a way to tell that an USB device is an Android one? Can you please run udevadm info --export-db > /tmp/udev-db.txt in a terminal and attach /tmp/udev-db.txt here, with the phone connected? ** Package changed: gvfs (Ubuntu) => udev (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: udev (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/903422 Title: Mount / Provide access to Android 4 (Ice Cream Sandwich, ICS) MTP devices Status in “udev” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Android 4 will not support anymore usb mass-storage protocol.

The only problem (limit) with ptp so far is that, strangely, it appears to limit the space access to +/-1,5 GB, as there is +/- 13 GB available (free) on the phone... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/903422 Title: Mount / Provide access to Android 4 (Ice Cream Sandwich, ICS) MTP devices Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Android 4 will not support anymore usb mass-storage protocol.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 903422] Re: Mount / Provide access to Android 4 (Ice Cream Sandwich, ICS) MTP devices
I'm on Ubuntu 11.10, using a Samsung Galaxy Nexus with Android 4/ICS. What I observe is that connecting the GN in ptp mode behaves almost exactly as it if it was connect as a USB mass storage device, i.e., automount, icon (camera) appearing in the Launcher & Nautilus, possibility to create/move/delete any kind of files/folders, etc. Even with Banshee (and Rhythmbox I presume), if you put an ".is_audio_player" at the root, the GN will me recognized as a Media/Audio player! Anyway, I guess that if the mtp connection was providing the same kind of access as ptp (by default, GN is set to connect as mtp device), it would be easier for novice users to have their GN phone works with Ubuntu. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/903422 Title: Mount / Provide access to Android 4 (Ice Cream Sandwich, ICS) MTP devices Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Android 4 will not support anymore usb mass-storage protocol.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status.

That isn't true that "Android 4 will not support anymore usb mass- storage protocol" it is up to device maker to provide sdcard slots or "internal sdcard". In that case mass storage will be available. But more devices do not have sdcard support or sdcard like internal memory. So, those are only accessible using the MTP protocol which needs to be implemented in GVFS to automatically mount in .gvfs users folders. ** Summary changed: - Mount / Provide access to Android 4 (Ice Cream Sandwich, ICS) devices + Mount / Provide access to Android 4 (Ice Cream Sandwich, ICS) MTP devices ** Package changed: udev (Ubuntu) => gvfs (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/903422 Title: Mount / Provide access to Android 4 (Ice Cream Sandwich, ICS) MTP devices Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Android 4 will not support anymore usb mass-storage protocol.
