So I'm trying to share files between the Samsung Galaxy S5 with Android and my Debian 9.1 with KDE machine.

The problem is that I keep getting:

The process for the mtp protocol died unexpectedly.

When trying to copy over files.

It also often says

No Storages found. Maybe you need to unlock your device?

I can view some of the phone's contents in dolphin after trying for a while: pressing "Allow" whenever the dialog on the phone asks for it while trying to open it in dolphin which correctly detects it as Samsung Galaxy S5.

I once could successfully copy over a bunch of images.

I already tried sudo apt-get install --reinstall libmtp-common. syslog has things like the following:

  The problem with MTP is that some phones, perhaps especially those from Samsung, implement MTP in incompatible ways. Some comments (and links) from another samsung-device-related question on this site may be useful. And GAD3R's answer is worth a try too (jmtpfs).

Install the jmtpfs package

apt install jmtpfs

Edit your /etc/fuse.conf as follows

# Allow non-root users to specify the allow_other or allow_root mount options.



user_allow_other

Create an udev rule. Use lsusb or mtp-detect to get the ID of your device

nano /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules

with the following line:

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="04e8", ATTR{idProduct}=="6860", MODE="0666", OWNER="[username]"

Replace 04e8 and 6860 with yours , then run:

udevadm control --reload

Reconnect your device , open the terminal and run:

mkdir ~/mtp

jmtpfs ~/mtp

ls ~/mtp

sample output:

Card  Phone

To unmount your device use the following command:

fusermount -u ~/mtp

Also you can use the go-mtpfs tool:

Mount MTP devices over FUSE

mkdir ~/mtp

go-mtpfs ~/mtp

A graphical tool to mount your device : gmtp:
