Re: [PLUG] Cannot access cell from USB (Chuck Hast)
Yes that would be a solution as this machine is my desktop machine, and I am figuring that as soon as I update the whole OS it will probably go away, given that none of my other machines have this issue. And to a certain point that is kind of how I am doing it now. I just plug the phone into a laptop, the laptop has a file manager window open with split pane, one side is the target desktop, the other side is the phone, I just drag and drop, it works and at this stage I will probably just continue to do it that way until I do the upgrade thing on this when 18.04 comes out.

Re: [PLUG] Cannot access cell from USB (Chuck Hast)
While this is not direct answer to your question about fixing the USB access on the phones. I too, run into the same problems, especially with newer phoneOS versions. I could not solve it reliably myself by USB, PTP or the other nasty protocols phone makers implement to push people to their clouds, literally. My solution is my own ownCloud/nextCloud instance running in the other people's clouds. Pun intended. I sync the phone with local storage through that. I also use it to host own calendar and contacts, but that is beside the point. It works reliably, without USB and it adds value to me.

Re: [PLUG] Cannot access cell from USB (Chuck Hast)
That is already selected on the phone. I have several other machines that I use this phone on, all running Ubuntu Mate 16.04 with the updates done when they come down the pike. This one machine stopped accepting the phone, the others are just fine with the machine. Indeed I just did a transfer using another machine and doing it that way. Thanks for the info though, I am continuing to look.

plug in usb cable - if you get a notification, there may be a shorter way to get here.. otherwise: Settings Connected Devices USB Use USB to * Transfer Files https://photos.app.goo.gl/aQFZtXv6NfS36BSG3 When I select that, Ubuntu/Natulus? mounts and opens a gui file browser.

Re: [PLUG] Cannot access cell from USB (Chuck Hast)
It was back in the latter half of last year. I remember that there was an update, some days later I tried to pull some data off of my cell and it refused. At that time I just plugged it into another machine pulled them off and dropped them onto this machine, I have been doing that since when I need to (most times I just pull them onto a laptop where I am going to use them) I wish I had taken note of the upgrade but at the time I was busy doing some- thing else and did not take the time to do so. The other computer let me get by if it had all NOT worked I would certainly have noticed but it was only the one machine. The upgrade, or actually update, was the only thing of note that had taken place that I could account for. I had not added any software, nor had the phone gone through an upgrade/update so the action on the PC was the only thing that I was able to think of as the cause. Prior to that point it had worked great, plug in phone, phone ask if I want to allow file sharing, I OK it and a file manager screen opens on the PC showing files in my phone. Now the phone ask if I want to share the files, but on the Linux machine it opens an empty file manager screen when I touch the allow access to device data on the phone it fails and starts over again. One way or another I will find it.

There was and upgrade some time back and after that it would not allow access. I am trying to figure out what is going on but no joy. When is "some time back"? A day, week, month? Did this problem occur immediately after the upgrade? Was the upgrade on the phone or computer? To even begin a somewhat informed search, I'd start with the list of SW updates that are related to usb, mobile phone, etc and then read through the release notes to see if you can find something that's in the ballpark at least. Then you can ask a better formed question on a forum or maybe even to the developer. ___ PLUG mailing list PLUG@pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
