Description Olivier Churlaud 2016-11-13 03:11:53 UTC

Installing gvfs-gphoto2, gvfs-mtp and nautilus is a common solution to be able to load an Android with MTP.

KIO (and dolphin) should be able to do the same. 

Currently the mtp session cannot hold and the devices keeps appearing/disappearing. It is impossible to browse.

My System
========
ArchLinux, all up-to-date
Phone: Samsung A3, with Android 6.0

Some debug showed that the problem is due to energy: if I connect the phone to the computer through a powered hub, it works correctly. (However it works fine even without the hub on Ubuntu with gnome)

I close it as workforme, as it is an issue with the energy of the USB port (if you plug it on an aliment hub, it works)
