Exactly the same happens to me. It's a huge issue to me because I need constantly copy files from android to ubuntu.

I have used MTP on 16.04 without problems, but on 18.04 it does not work. When I connect my Android devices (Samsung A5 and Samsung J3) and I try to list directories with many files (e.g. /DCIM/Camera) the window hangs until I disconnect the device. Same issue if I try to post the command "ls /var/run/1000/gvfs/<MTP-FOLDER>". I have installed Ubuntu 18.04 on two different machines - an older HP laptop and a recent DELL laptop - and the issue is present on the all of them. I suspect a defect on the "libmtp". I tried many alternative solutions suggested by the net (e.g. jmtpfs and so on) but anyone worked. That's all!
