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

[Siep Kroonenberg]

Copying files with adb works well for me, with a standalone adb from
http://code.google.com/p/texasice-cream-sandwich-
mirror/downloads/detail?name=adb_fastboot.zip&can=2&q= . No need to
unmount the sd card on the tablet.

With the original ROM, nothing worked for me. With CM9, at least adb is
fine. mtp only sort-of works.

Mtp may be ok for media, at least if it works, but I much prefer proper
access to the filesystem, which adb provides. When googling for adbfs I
get several hits. I think something like that would be just what I need.
