Thanks again! As a slightly cruder solution to android photo access, I
see that saving photos to a micoSD in the phone, removing it and
sticking the card into a regular SD card adapter, and using that in the
built in card-reader in my computer, allows access just like a USB
stick or external hard drive, with the microSD appearing just like any
external storage in the Qubes VM manager. 

Cheers.

yes I have no luck with two diff usbvms.  I just make one and call it sys-usb. 
and I must have the proxy installed in it cause I use it for mouse.

You are right, support for USB touchscreen is incomplete, see 
https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/2281 . Maybe it would not 
require much work.

You can also try to start sys-usb temporarily and then (when you have no 
remaining connected device) to reassign the USB controller back to dom0: 
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/assigning-devices/#bringing-pci-device-back-to-dom0

Note that starting a non-HVM with USB controller (or any other PCI device) 
might be a little challenging sometimes, because PV with PCI require 
unfragmented memory. You can:

* Hope you will be lucky all the time.
* Give sys-usb as low memory as possible. (200MiB should be enough.)
* Attach USB controller to a HVM (which will probably consume more memory, but 
it won't require it unfragmented) – requires VT-d/IOMMU.
* Shut some VMs down, ideally with temporarily disabled qmemman.
* Wait for Qubes 4. It will use HVMs (or probably slightly different technology 
in 4.1) instead of PVs, so it won't require unfragmented memory. Requires 
VT-d/IOMMU and few other virtualization features.

Thanks. Yes, my touchscreen breaks when choosing usb-vm on install. I
suspect it is possible to pass it back to dom0, but haven't had time to
figure it out.

The qubes-usb-proxy is needed in both VMs (in this case, you would have to 
install in dom0).

Well, it might work in dom0, but I am not sure if it is the intended usage.

What's your reason for not using sys-usb? Do you use some USB device that needs 
to be connected directly to dom0?

Can attaching an android phone be accomplished without having a usb-vm? 

When I try the above method substituting my devices and dom0 instead
of sys-usb, I get this error:

qubes-usb-proxy not installed in the VM

qubes-usb-proxy is installed in the destination VM, but I don't have a
sys-usb. 

Thanks!

i you idle it for a couple minutes probably whenever your phoen screen lock go 
on,  you have to hit allow on the phone again.  everytime you try to access the 
drive keep screen unlocked and be ready to hit allow on the phone.

Maybe the phone resets its USB connection at that point (as it was unplugged 
and plugged again), so it appears in sys-usb again. Do you see it here?

Workarounds:

* Ideally, there would be a way to tell sys-usb not to communicate to the 
device when it reconnects and to somehow reconnect it as soon as it reappears. 
AFAIK, there is currently no such option.
* You might try to assing it again, but I am unsure if it will work.
* Can you set your phone to allow it without asking? This might prevent the 
reconnects…

Works for me using a debian-based sys-usb.  once I click allow on the phone i 
can browse its directories in the file manager.

Maybe put your phone in developer mode and then try mtp again.

Hello and thank you for the walkthrough! I do indeed see a "SAMSUNG Android" in 
the file manager. As soon as I click on it, my phone prompts me to "Allow 
access to device data". As soon as I click "Allow", the icon disappears. VM's 
dmesg says:
vhci_hcd: connection closed

Any ideas how to troubleshoot? This works as expected on a FC25 laptop. 

Many thanks,

Alex

Re: [qubes-users] Accessing Android phone photos

Hello Alex,

set of instructions for accessing my phone's files over MTP. What are 
the steps? /


I have never attached my Android phone to Qubes before, but tried so a 
few minutes ago and could access it without any problems:


1) attach phone via USB

2) on the phone, switch from "Charging only" to "USB Data tranfser (MTP)"

3) Launch a dom0 Terminal, you should see your phone after entering:
[user@dom0 ~]$ qvm-usb
   ...
   sys-usb:3-3 04xx:88xx Android_Androidxxx
   ...

4) mount your phone via sys-usb to your AppVM (I've choosen my untrusted 
AppVM in this case):

[user@dom0 ~]$ qvm-usb -a untrusted sys-usb:3-3

5) Open a File Explorer in this AppVM
[user@dom0 ~]$ qvm-run untrusted nautilus

6) you should see your phone as an additional device beneath the Trash-Icon.
If not, unmount and remount the phone once:
[user@dom0 ~]$ qvm-usb -d sys-usb:3-3
[user@dom0 ~]$ qvm-usb -a untrusted sys-usb:3-3


Good luck

- P
