The Mint workaround almost worked for me. I am also on 20.04. I moved a file out of my target folder and into a new folder on the same level. The files in both folders became accessible. I moved the file back into the original folder and the folder became inaccessible again. When I try to move any files from my computer into the target folder, the folder once again becomes inaccessible. After a few minutes of nothing happening, I get the message, "Error While Copying: There was an error creating the folder "folder_to_transfer". File not found". After that, if I leave the folder and go back in, I can no longer access the files. I get the same error I originally did: "Location could not be displayed: Sorry, could not display contents of "target_folder": libmtp error: could not get object handles of [hex]"

The file manager is inactive for a long time, and finally displays the error: Sorry, could not display all the contents of "Music": libmtp error: could not get object handles. Adding one more subfolder on the android side seems to work around the issue, so the issue is related to the number of items. Given this, my issue appears to be a specific example of the issue described in the link below. https://sourceforge.net/p/libmtp/bugs/1808/ Observed in linux mint 18.3 64 bit / ubuntu 16.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libmtp/+bug/1810176/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
