[Bug 903422] Re: Mount / Provide access to Android 4 (Ice Cream Sandwich, ICS) MTP devices

[Alistair Cunningham]

Not sure if it's the correct version, but I downloaded this file:

http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libm/libmtp/libmtp9_1.1.3-24-g9aca343-3ubuntu1_i386.deb

and installed it, and mtp-detect still gives this with a Samsung Galaxy
S III GT-I9300:

$ mtp-detect 
libmtp version: 1.1.3

Listing raw device(s)
Device 0 (VID=04e8 and PID=6860) is a Samsung GT P7310/P7510/N7000/I9070/I9100/I9300 Galaxy Tab 7.7/10.1/S2/S3/Nexus/Note/Y.
   Found 1 device(s):
   Samsung: GT P7310/P7510/N7000/I9070/I9100/I9300 Galaxy Tab 7.7/10.1/S2/S3/Nexus/Note/Y (04e8:6860) @ bus 2, dev 20
Attempting to connect device(s)
PTP_ERROR_IO: failed to open session, trying again after resetting USB interface
LIBMTP libusb: Attempt to reset device
LIBMTP PANIC: failed to open session on second attempt
Unable to open raw device 0
OK.

If there's a newer version you'd like me to try, I'm happy to do so;
please let me know the URL.

  users using mtp-tools and adjusted udev-rules:

  Pangolin (12.04) should be prepared for Android ICS devices and grant
  easy access to music and pictures and other files to all users.
