Also affected. In my case, a Samsung Galaxy S SCL GT-I9003 Ubuntu 14.04 ships libmtp 1.1.6. I wonder if a higher, or lower version of this lib, would fix these problems? (I said "lower" in my previous sentence, because many people claim here that it worked with Ubuntu 12.04.)
Apparently Ubuntu 12.04 included libmtp-1.1.3-1, and Ubuntu 15.04 includes latest libmtp, which is 1.1.8. Has anyone of you tried to run Ubuntu 15.04? Or downgrade your libmtp to 1.1.3 in your 14.04?
