In some cases a bug report concerning your device might have already been filed and solved in a more recent libmtp release than what your distribution ships with (e.g.: Motorola Moto G). The bug tracker lists my device as supported but it still won't work You should search the libmtp bug tracker for your device and follow the instructions for new devices on the project page to open a bug report. (The device still doesn't work flawless here, but using mtp-detect helps.) Your device is either not supported by the underlying libmtp or you might experience the same issue I have with my Lumia 620, please follow the workaround (steps to reproduce) I posted in LP#1247572: Nokia Lumia 620 (WP8) fails to mount reliably via gvfs-mtp in nautilus. You should consider filing a bug against the libmtp package (more precisely libmtp-common) to have your device included in future versions, if this worked for you. The rule is the following and works for adb: SUBSYSTEMS='usb', ATTRS='1'

I am using Kubuntu 11.10 64-bit, and this is what I have done and the results I get:Īdded rule for device in /etc/udev/rules.d/les. I am having quite a bit of problems getting file-transfers working over MTP with the Galaxy Nexus.

While this question is about the Galaxy Nexus, other Android devices as well as Windows Phones and MTP enabled media players are also supported. Since Ubuntu 13.04 storage access to external devices via MTP is supposed to work out of the box via a GVFS-MTP module.
