Quoting [1] :

MTP device handling has been rewritten, which fixes an enormous amount of bugs
(Andreas Krutzler, KDE Applications 18.12.0)

So it is the real fix and not a workaround like changing the type of USB ports.

I read somewhere (blog probably) the root cause was that concurrent access to
MTP devices was broken : as soon as you would ask for 2 actions they would be
sent in parallel to the device instead of being serialized and break the MTP
connection. But I can’t find the source anymore.

I'm not entirely sure it has been fixed there, but at least I'm marking the 
bug as forwarded.

According to the upstream bug some people manage to solve the issue by using a 
USB 2.0 port, but I don't think that will work for everyone, although I do 
really hope I'm mistaken :-)

Kinds regards, Lisandro.

Amending that this is possibly the same as
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=319880 which upstream reports as
fixed in 18.12.

Bug#920153: kio-extras: MTP access mostly fails with Android device

2019-01-22 Thread Timo Kalliomäki
Package: kio-extras
Version: 4:18.08.3-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

MTP access is flaky (with a Sony Z5 Android device). The device is detected when
choosing "file transfer mode" on it, but trying to browse the device in Dolphin
often results in the connection "resetting" and the device showing a new
connection mode prompt (or a rapid burst of them). If I do manage to
successfully
browse the device, the connection will fail on attempt to copy a file from the
device with a "The process for the mtp protocol died unexpectedly" Dolphin error
dialog. The same hardware setup performs flawlessly when using another operating
system on the host, so this is a software problem in the Debian environment.

Best regards,
Timo
