Are you sure this is the storage mode which is set on the device? You
should be able to access the storage from Linux as well ...
Maybe I was too short in my explanation. This phone has probably more
than two different modes; so far, I assume there are three:
1. install mode: shows the pseudo CDROM and probably other storage drives
2. ADB/modem mode: activated by the Windows driver or by usb_modeswitch from
mode 1
3. storage mode: shows only the phone storage drive(s)
These modes may be detectable either by a changed USB ID or by a changed
internal setup (attributes, interfaces). It's quite possible that mode 1
and 2 appear as one setting on the device ("modem", "serial" or the
like) and that only a mode switch will make it reach mode 2.
Of course, I may be totally wrong. To verify these assumptions, it will
be necessary to check out the configuration of the modes in detail. This
can be done with "sudo lsusb -v -d 19d2:<product_id>" for all possible
settings, including the one that is reached when mode switching is
activated again.
BTW, you don't need to edit the rules file to enable/disable the mode
switch. Just edit /etc/usb_modeswitch.conf and set the DisableSwitching
parameter.
