I don't believe this is actually an issue. I have the same 'problem', but Banshee does eventually identify the phone and the music files. My phone is a Motorola Moto X XT1053 with 32GB of storage. I figure it is just taking Banshee a while to scan all the files and identify the audio files.
I notice those who have posted in this bug are running Android on either Nexus or Samsung Galaxy phones. This means that you probably have at least 16 GB of storage that Banshee has to scan for audio files and identify the files as songs. Sometimes this can take some time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1178179 Title: Banshee hangs after plugging in Android phone To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/banshee/+bug/1178179/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
